Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine warm orange juice, active sourdough starter, sugar, and salt until well blended.
- Gradually incorporate bread flour until just combined, ensuring a shaggy dough forms.
- Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rest in a warm place for 30 minutes.
- While the dough rests, rinse and halve the fresh cranberries, removing any imperfections.
- Perform the first set of stretch and folds with wet hands, rotating the bowl as you go. Cover and let it rest for another 30 minutes.
- Repeat the stretch and fold process 2–3 more times, approximately every 30 minutes, for 4-5 hours.
- Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan with non-stick spray and pour in melted butter.
- Transfer the dough into the prepared pan and let it rise until puffed for about 1-2 hours.
- Prepare the streusel topping by mixing diced cold butter, brown sugar, and all-purpose flour in a bowl.
- Add the streusel on top of the risen dough and create dimples with your fingers.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the focaccia for 27-30 minutes.
- Allow it to cool slightly before drizzling melted white chocolate over the top.
- Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
