Directions
Kittencal’s Soft White Baguette-Style Bread,If you are looking for a wonderful tender no-fail bread that you do not have to bother shaping into bread pans, then this is one that is fantastic! It is so simple to make on a heavy-duty stand mixer, although I have never tried this on a bread machine, I think you might just have good results that way also.,I have a new bread pan and wanted to try it out so I made this recipe. Love it! I think that my loaves came out beautifully. I did use my bread machine for the dough, and used a whole egg instead of only the white for brushing, which is probably why my loves browned so well. used about 3 1/2 cups of bread flour, and sprinkled the tops with sea salt and sesame seeds. You can always count on Kittencal’s recipes to deliver great results!
