Ingredients
- 120 grams Active sourdough starter
- 240 milliliters Warm water
- 400 grams All-purpose flour
- 100 grams Bread flour
- 10 grams Salt
- 7 grams Sugar
Directions
Step 1
Ensure your sourdough starter is active and bubbly before beginning the recipe.
Step 2
Add the ingredients to your bread machine in the following order: warm water, sourdough starter, all-purpose flour, bread flour, sugar, and salt.
Step 3
Set the bread machine to the 'Dough' cycle, which typically takes around 90 minutes. This cycle will knead the dough and allow it to rest for the first rise.
Step 4
Once the dough cycle is complete, transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface.
Step 5
Divide the dough into 3 equal portions and shape each into a baguette, approximately 12 inches long. Place the shaped baguettes onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a lightly floured baguette pan.
Step 6
Cover the baguettes with a damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap and allow them to rise at room temperature for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until they have doubled in size.
Step 7
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) and place a shallow pan of water on the bottom rack to create steam for a crisp crust.
Step 8
Using a sharp knife or lame, make 3 to 4 diagonal slashes on the surface of each baguette.
Step 9
Bake the baguettes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Step 10
Cool the baguettes on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
