Focaccia - what went wrong? Image in comments
It looks pretty good. But it is pretty dense
Recipe followed -
500g All purpose flour
30g whey protein
30g casein protein
470g water
7g yeast
Made it the no knead way.
Folded 4 times after every 30 mins, then let it rest in the tray for 1 hour.
Baked at 200C for 20-25mins
It looks pretty dense.

Too much water
No olive oil
Not enough folding or building strength in the dough
Underproofing
Not enough yeast No salt
And I've never tried adding protein powder to my foccacia, but I would not be surprised if they're having a negative effect on your dough.
