It tastes more like a biscuit and not like a bread. DH liked it but I expected real garlicky bread and was disappointed.

Well, all 4 of us liked this focaccia bread! The garlic smelled so good! We had it with beef stew and I used buttermilk and a mixed blend of romano and parmesan cheese. Delicious! Thanks for sharing this quick and yummy recipe!
