Herbed Onion Focaccia

Submitted by diner524

"I found this recipe in my recent Taste of Home magazine. Its sounds so good and uses a bread machine. It is described that it is best served warmed and the next day makes the best toast you've ever had! Time does not include time for the bread machine cycle. This makes a 1 1/2 lb loaf."

Delicious! And that's all I have to say about that. Update: formed 4 small round loafs, scooped out the middle to make bread bowls, and poured in New England clam chowder (from a can, sorry). TRY IT!

Delicious! I don't have a bread machine, so I kneaded it in the Kitchen Aide for about five mins., let it rise for an hour in the microwave and followed the directions from there. Wouldn't change a thing. Thanks for posting the recipe!

Very tasty bread, diner. It was a bit "dill-y" for my taste, but was still good. DH really liked it. It was easy to make in the breadmaker and made a large loaf. Made for I Recommend tag game.

Tasty and Can be made without a bread maker. Not known for my baking skills and this sounding so yummy decided to draw on everything I learned as a very little girl and went for it. All I can say is everyone was very happy with the end result. I made using whole wheat flour, mixed the yeast with warm water and let sit 5 minutes. Then mixed into the flour and other ingredients and kneaded for about 3 minutes, shaped and let rise for an hour, baked and we had bread. Thanks so much for the post.
