This Italian focaccia with vegan melted cheese is thin, crisp, melty, stringy and packed with flavour. It's the perfect meal to share with friends, and you can eat it as a starter, main, or as an indulgent Sunday brunch.

This recipe is inspired by "focaccia di Recco", a traditional Italian focaccia.

EQUIPMENT
Baking trays to cook the focaccia: we used a round one that is 28 cm or 11 inches, and a rectangular one that is 40cm x 30 cm or 16 x 12 inches.
Rolling pin
Whisk
Small pot

INGREDIENTS LIST
🌱 Focaccia Dough
300 g (2 cups) flour all-purpose or bread flour
140 g (0.6 cups) water
30 g (2.5 tbsp) olive oil
3 g (½ tsp) salt

🌱 Vegan Cheese
370 g (1½ cups) soy milk unsweetened
50 g (6½ tbsp) potato starch
15 g (2 tbsp) corn starch
20 g (1½ tbsp) olive oil
8 g (1½ tbsp) nutritional yeast
3 g (½ tsp) salt
190 g (⅘ cups) soy yogurt unsweetened
500 g (17.5 oz) spinach optional

STORAGE
This crisp focaccia with vegan melted cheese is best eaten straight out of the oven, while still warm, melty and crisp. If you have some leftover, you can store it in an airtight container for 24 hours, and then reheat it in the oven for about 5 to 10 minutes, until very warm again. The biggest challenge when storing this focaccia is that the dough won't be as crisp as on the first day.
