I add a cup of roughly chopped cilantro and 2 T. butter to the dough, serve it up with a cilantro/garlic/lime butter!
Failproof French Bread (Bread Machine)
This makes two loaves of long baguette type French bread that has wonderful flavor and is so easy to make!
2 loaves
35 minutes 15 mins prep
3 1/2 cups bread flour (I added 2T. to 3T. more)
1 teaspoon salt
1 package active dry yeast
1 1/4 cups warm water
1. Place ingredients in bread machine according to manufacturers directions.
2. Start machine on dough setting.
3. When dough cycle is complete, remove dough with floured hands and cut in half on floured surface.
4. Take each half of dough and roll to make a loaf about 12 inches long in the shape of French bread.
5. Place on greased baking sheet and cover with a towel.
6. Let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
7. Preheat oven to 450°.
8. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown, turning pan around once halfway during baking.
9. Remove baked loaves to wire racks to cool.
