Healthy Focaccia Bread With Caramelized Onions And Olives

Italian Focaccia bread is a flat oven bread, and my recipe makes it a healthy Focaccia bread. This bread is something similar to a Pizza but a little thicker. I am always health conscious and try to keep my bread as healthy as possible. My usual me asked me to make healthy Focaccia bread by replacing 50% of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour.
