Review on Non-Stick Silicone Mini Baguette Baking Tray - Perfect for French Bread Loaves, Rolls, and Crispy Breadsticks! by Jill Ellis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I love this pan! Ideal for small baguettes.

I ordered this to use as a sort of new bread pan from time to time. Instead, I use it often. He bakes the perfect little baguette for sandwiches. It turns out a baguette with a beautiful crumb and crust. Because the bottom is aerated, baguettes have a nice crust on the bottom that never gets wet. Baguettes can be shaped, let rise in the pan, and then baked. So easy! Oil is not required. Baguettes just pop out. Just throw them in the dishwasher when you're done baking. My Favorite Semi-Healthy Baguette Recipe Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. 250 grams bread flour (2 cups - I usually use King Arthur bread flour but this is a very gentle recipe. You can also use all-purpose flour) 3 tablespoons hemp seeds 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon your favorite herb - optional (rosemary, za'atar, sumac, Italian Spice mix are some of my favorites) (2-4 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley is great too) Lemon or orange zest is also great to add to the entry. ½ teaspoon dry yeast (Resist the temptation to use more. It rises too quickly. You need slow growth for flavor to come out.) 1-2 tablespoons olive oil (or I substitute pistachio, hazelnut, etc. for homemade nut butters). ) 1 cup of liquid - you can use water. I alternate with homemade veggie broth rich in green chunks, yogurt, kefir, or drained milk whey (kefir gives it a sourdough flavor—yum. Vegetables fortify it with extra vitamins and minerals. Don't worry, you won't taste veggie broth.) Mix dry ingredients together. add oil. (If I use nut butter instead of butter, I quickly stir it up in a blender jar with the required liquid.) Add about ¾ cup liquid. stir. Slowly add 1 tablespoon additional liquid. Sometimes you will need all of these. Sometimes all you need is an extra tablespoon or two. It depends on the flour and the weather. Cover and let rest on counter for 12-24 hours before forming into 8 baguettes. Let the baguettes rise for 2-4 hours, depending on the weather. They should double their size. This pan makes 8 perfect baguettes. Bake at 400 degrees for about 18 minutes. Ovens vary, so check back every 16 minutes. I like to brush with melted butter after taking the baked bread out of the oven. Let cool and enjoy. This is a very flexible recipe. The proportions are perfect for this pan.
