Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for greasing
2 cups white bread flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 envelope active dry yeast
1 (generous) cup lukewarm water
1 cup pitted green or black olives, halved

Toppings
2 red onions, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves

Directions:
Directions:
Bake in a preheated oven, 375º
Lightly oil a couple of cookie sheets. Sift the flour and salt into a large mixing bowl, then stir in the yeast. Pour in the olive oil and lukewarm water and mix everything together to form a dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured counter and knead it for about 5 minutes. Alternatively, you could use your electric mixer with dough hook. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover and set aside in a warm place for about 1-1 1/2 hours or until dough has doubled in size. Punch down the dough by kneading it again for 1-2 minutes. Knead half of the olives into the dough. Divide the dough into quarters and then shape the quarters into rounds. Place them on the cookie sheets and push your fingers into the dough to create a dimple effect. To make the topping, sprinkle the red onion's, and remaining olives over the rounds. Drizzle the olive oil over the top and sprinkle with the sea salt and thyme leaves. Cover and set aside for 30 minutes. Bake in the preheated oven, 375º for 20-25 minutes or until the focaccia are golden.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
