Important: We recommend to watch the video above first. Picture is worth a thousand words. :slightly_smiling_face: 

  • Put all ingredients together into a mixing bowl
  • Mix for 8 minutes until dough is smooth. Use Kitchen Aid Mixer on high-speed, electric hand mixer on low-speed or just mix with wooden spatula if you want a little workout.
  • Shape baguette with wet hands, place on oiled baguette pan
  • Cover with a light wet towel. Let rise 45 minutes at room temperature. 
  • Preheat oven to 400F convection or 425F no convection
  • Right before putting in Oven score Baguette with Knife
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes. Add 5-10 more minutes if you like thicker crust.
  • Remove from oven and enjoy right away! Baguettes taste best the first day.
