This focaccia recipe uses fresh blackberries to add a sweet bite to the otherwise savory bread. The bursts of berry flavor compliment the herby goodness that comes from the fresh rosemary.

- 2 tablespoons oil and 3 tablespoons more for drizzling
- 2 tsp flaked salt

- To active yeast, combine sugar, lukewarm water in a small bowl and add yeast. Let it sit for 10 minutes or until yeast is foamy.

- Cover the dough with a towel and let it sit for another 30 minutes.
- In the meantime, thinly cut the blackberries crosswise into 3-4 slices.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
