Stir yeast and warm water together in a large bowl, and let stand for 15 minutes.
- 2
Add olive oil, sugar, all-purpose flour, and salt. Use a wooden spoon to stir until a very soft, sticky dough forms. While stirring, incorporate any dough that sticks to the sides of the bowl.
- 3
Drizzle olive oil over the dough, and rub some on your hands. Pick up the dough and, with your fingers underneath, gently push it upward to stretch the sides down and under several times while rotating the dough. Form a relatively smooth ball with some surface tension on top. Place the dough ball in the bowl, smooth side up, cover the bowl, and refrigerate overnight.
- 4
The next morning, remove the dough and let it rise at room temperature until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
- 5
Generously oil a work surface with olive oil, and transfer the dough to the work surface. Press it into a large rectangle, then fold it into thirds in one direction and then the other to form a small rectangle, about 6x9 inches.
- 6
Generously oil a sheet pan with olive oil, and transfer the dough rectangle to the sheet pan. Press the dough out to about 1/2-inch thick. Cover and let proof at room temperature until the dough has spread out, risen slightly, and developed bubbles on the surface, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- 7
Meanwhile, wrap the plum sections with prosciutto and refrigerate until needed.
- 8
Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
- 9
Sprinkle the dough with rosemary. Push the wrapped plum sections deep into the dough in a 3x4 pattern. Drizzle the top lightly with olive oil, and sprinkle with sea salt.

Bake in the preheated oven until browned, 17 to 20 minutes. As soon as the focaccia is out of the oven, brush it with more olive oil if desired. Transfer the focaccia to a rack and let it cool completely before cutting.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
