I followed the recipe exactly, but my focaccia didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The bread was a bit dense, and the cranberries were too tart. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This focaccia was divine! The cranberries added a lovely tartness that balanced out the sweet dough. I also loved the addition of rosemary, which gave the bread a nice savory flavor. I will definitely be making this again!
