Quick Breakfast Ideas Garlic Rosemary Focaccia Muffins

I reach for warm bread in the morning. These garlic rosemary focaccia muffins hit the spot. They bake fast. They feel light at the edge and soft in the middle. When time is tight, I keep pizza dough in the fridge. That choice gives me quick breakfast ideas that still taste homemade. This quick focaccia bread recipe keeps things simple. We stir fresh rosemary with olive oil and chopped garlic. The smell fills the kitchen. I call this one my quiet hero for Breakfast Ideas. It fits right in with breakfast ideas that save time. I love rosemary recipes, so these muffins live on repeat. Every bite brings a clean hit of salt and herb. The dimples hold the oil. You get a crisp top and a tender crumb. If you like a rosemary bread recipe you will like this too. For fans of recipes with rosemary, this bake makes sense. We eat one with eggs, then pack two more for the road.
