Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine warm water with granulated sugar. Sprinkle active dry yeast over and let sit for 10-15 minutes until foamy.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together bread flour and salt. Pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
- Coat the dough lightly with olive oil, cover with a damp cloth, and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
- Grease a 9x13-inch pan with melted unsalted butter. Deflate the dough and transfer it to the pan, spreading it out. Cover and let rise for 1.5 to 2 hours.
- Melt unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat until golden brown. Mix in light brown sugar and cinnamon.
- Preheat oven to 450°F. Once the dough has risen, press dimples into its surface and drizzle the brown butter mixture over.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and edges are crispy. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- For icing, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over the focaccia and serve.

Notes
Allow the yeast to become foamy for successful activation and let the dough rise slowly for enhanced flavor and texture.
