In a large mixing bowl, combine the 50 g peak starter, 200 g water, 15 g olive oil, 6 g salt, and 250 g flour. Mix until all ingredients are well combined and a shaggy dough forms.

Perform coil folds on the dough. To do this, wet your hands slightly, gently lift the dough from the center, and fold it over itself. Rotate the bowl a quarter turn and repeat. Continue this process for a total of 4 folds. Repeat this coil folding process every 30 minutes for a total of 4 sets of folds.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator overnight (for at least 8 hours, up to 12 hours) to cold ferment.

The next day, remove the dough from the refrigerator.

Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by generously pouring extra olive oil into each cup, filling them approximately 1/4 to 1/3 of the way up.

Gently divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Place one portion into each oiled muffin cup.

Drizzle additional extra olive oil generously over the top of each dough portion in the muffin tin.

Cover the muffin tin loosely with plastic wrap or place it inside a large plastic bag. Let the dough rest and rise on the counter at room temperature for 4-6 hours, or until visibly puffy and increased in volume.

Once the dough has risen, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Add your desired toppings to each focaccia muffin. Gently press the toppings into the dough to create dimples. For example, spoon red sauce, place cherry tomatoes, sprinkle dried herbs (like rosemary), or arrange sliced green and black olives. Finish by sprinkling sea salt flakes over the toppings and dough.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-30 minutes, or until the focaccia muffins are golden brown and cooked through.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. These are excellent served warm, perhaps alongside a bowl of soup.
