Bread Machine Dough for French Baguettes

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Psalm 47:8


    [8] God reigns over the nations;

        God sits on his holy throne.



So easy and so delicious!!


1 1/3 c Water (95 degree warm)

3 1/2 c aerated Bread Flour 

1 t Salt 

2 t Quick Yeast


Dough brushing

2 T Olive Oil (to coat dough that is shaped and ready to rise)


Select dough setting

After the 1-1/2 hours dough making, remove to lightly flour dusted surface, I used a piece of parchment 

Cut into 2 equal pieces and flatten to a triangle shape

You will have 2 Baguettes 

Roll up dough pretty tightly like you are going to make cinnamon rolls, pinching ends and where dough edge meets and give it a light roll on parchment 

Lay on parchment on baking pan

Brush with olive oil

Cover to rise ( should take 45 minutes) 

I turned my oven on early to 450 degrees to get kitchen warm, but this is your baking temp

After rising, make slits every 3 inches across top

Bake 8 minutes then rotate pan and bake another 6-7 minutes until lightly golden 

Remove from oven to rack to cool 

Don't freak because the tops will be hard as a rock but will soften as they cool

Let cool 10-15 minutes before cutting 

Butter and enjoy

1 Corinthians 15:54-57


[54] When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: 


    “Death is swallowed up in victory.” 

    [55] “O death, where is your victory?

        O death, where is your sting?”


    [56] The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. [57] But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
