Ingredients - Serves 8

In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil.
Stir the mixture until it forms a sticky dough. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Punch down the dough and transfer it to a greased baking sheet. Press the dough into a rectangular shape.
Arrange the sliced onions and sprinkle fresh thyme leaves on top of the dough. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
