How to Make Herbed Onion Focaccia

In your bread machine pan, add the following ingredients in the order recommended by your machine's manual:
Select the dough setting on your bread machine and let the cycle complete.
Once the cycle is finished, gently turn the dough out onto a lightly greased baking sheet. Gently punch down the dough.
Using lightly oiled hands, shape the dough into a 9-inch circle on the baking sheet.
Brush the dough evenly with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Sprinkle generously with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
Cover the baking sheet loosely with plastic wrap and let the focaccia rise in a warm place until doubled in size, approximately 45 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the focaccia for 18-20 minutes, or until it's beautifully golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing into wedges.
Serve warm and enjoy! The next day, toast slices for an unforgettable treat.
