A while ago I was so frustrated because I did not own a baguette rack, guess what, got one! And it was so much fun molding the dough to the rack, watch it rise and at last taste it…so take a look at my French baguettes. I was so excited when the bread came out of the oven I kept telling my husband how “cute” they look with the little dents on the bottom, just like the ones that you can get at the bakery.
Ingredients:
¾ cup of water
2 cups bread flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
½ tablespoon gluten
1 ½ teaspoon yeast
Preparation:
Place the water first at the bottom of the bucket and add the dry ingredients. Select the French bread setting, and remove the dough after the second rise by placing in a floury surface. Divide the dough in three pieces, open the dough into a rectangular shape and roll until the shape and size is secured. Cover the dough with an oiled clear film and leave in a warm place for approximately 1 to 1 ½ hour or until the dough is double of the original size. Just before placing the dough in the oven make small cuts and spray the dough with lots of water. Bake in pre-heated oven for approximately 15 to 20 minutes at 450F.

They are cute and look just like what you get in a bakery!
Yeast scares the daylights out of me–I buy, don’t bake, bread. These look fantastic!!! Just like what I buy!
This is why I need a baguette rack – it makes the difference to the finished product and yours look as though they have come straight from a bakery.
I did not even know a rack is needed for this. :O
They look awesome! They do look like the are from a bakery! Great job!
Gorgeous baguettes! Now I want a rack!
Juliana… There is absolutely nothing like a fresh baked baguette… nice & crunchy on the outside and warm & soft on the inside. Also, the aroma must be amazing while they are baking, too!
So, glad to find your wonderful site. I look forward to exploring through your culinary treats.
How cool! I want one!
Yum! There’s nothing better than the smell and taste of homemade bread.
Oh what a great tool to have, they look like they walked out of a bakery. I bet they smelled wonderful baking. I love your little tags by your photos!
That’s a great tool for baking!
They look SO perfect! I want one. Mmm I bet they were super yum too. Enjoy
What a great baguette pan!! Love it!
I just baked french bread for the first time ever last weekend. It tasted great, but it didn’t have the professional look that yours do! They look great
I did not even know baguette racks existed! I love baking bread, but mine always looks a little deformed (although it tastes good). But my problem is only equipment!
If you didn’t tell you made these yourself, I would have thought they are out of a bakery. They are so professionally made! Well done!
Congrats for your baguette rack!
And you did a great job with your baguettes
Congratulations! They look fantastic!
Beautiful bread, you beat me here. I never made baguette before.
Juliana, they are perfect! They must taste so good right out of the oven!
Had no idea that the rack made those little indentations in the bread. That’s pretty cool. It’s so fun to have a little kitchen tool to make foods.
As good as any professional baker would have made them, but then again you are a pro in my books!!!
Your baguettes look georgous!! So, this thing was necessary & so well used!!
MMMMMMMMMMMM,…lovely bread!!
Gorgeous baguettes. I used to have a baker similar to this and through the years it disappeared. I confess I don’t bake I buy, but yours look so good…..I might have to reconsider.
Sam
That looks so professional! And so does your bread! I wish I could smell that baking right now!
Wow! I don’t bake bread that often but a baguette rack sure sounds like a fun thing to have in the kitchen
Looks like your’s was very successful
Your bread came out perfectly baked. I’d enjoy using one of those racks too!
Wow, I’ve never heard of a baguette rack before but the bread looks like it came out perfectly!
Homade baguettes!!! They look GREAT! Mmm, I bet that tastes so good….works really nice I bet with that baguette rack!
Yay!!!! You got you baugette rack!!! The finshed bread looks great, No more going to the bakery for your bread.
These look perfect! Yay for your new bread rack! I bet these were better than the ones from the bakery – homemade always is!
The baguettes turned out wonderfully! I have two bread racks at home, and also use it to dry out freshly made pasta, as the holes help to dry out the noodles. Great job!
I am so impressed–those look straight out of a bakery! WOW!
Very pretty baguettes! I bet they taste heavenly!
Cheers,
Rosa

Wow, I love the idea of home baked bread! Your baguette looks really good. I am thinking on a Friday evening after a hectic week of work, break out one of the french loaves, some cheese and a bottle of wine. This is fabulous! Great blog post!
Wow, it looks just like the ones they have at Subway! I am SO jealous! Your baguette’s look amazing….. lol, that’s just a fun sentence to say ,-)
Your own baguette rack! How cool is that? You are a pro now, and those golden baguettes look like a million bucks.
Baguettes are deceivingly hard to bake! can I buy these from you? haha, I can’t find ANY decent baguettes around here!!
Cool! I’ve never seen one of these racks before – it’s certainly made your baguettes look extra perfect!! (Was the inside nice and fluffy?)
These baguettes really do look professional. I am so impressed.
I need one of these. I’ll be putting this on my Christmas list. Great looking bread. They are very cute!
so THAT’s how they get all those little dents!! who knew! Sure looks delicious though! I could go for a whole loaf right now!
how cool! I had no idea they had special racks for baguettes. Your house must have smelled amazing!
yeast never works for me,Baguette looks good.
I am coveting your baguette rack! Where do I get one. Your loaves look fantastic.
Mimi
Those certainly qualify as ‘cute’-love the little dents too

Your post makes me want to get some and start eating baguettes with the goat cheese I just made!
Wow, making bread is quite a committment, but these baguettes look perfect!
Oh, baquette rack! It’s on my christmas wish list!! You baquette looks so GOOD!!! book mark this recipe. Finger-crossed santa will send me the rack
Wow, these look so professional! I am inspired to try baking a baguette myself.
Such beautiful baguettes! They really are challenging to shape; mind never look this good, that’s for sure.
It looks amazing, and the rack is a pretty cool gadget, I never seen it around here.
I have got a baguette rack in US but not used them yet. Shame on me! Should try it soon!!!!!!!!! The rack is a little big so i will have to place in the oven diagonally, hope it will be ok.
Oh very nice. This is going to my Christmas wish list
Oh wow, those look just like they’re from the bakery!
Uhh, could you help me? My bread has never looked that good. Ever.
Fabulous job.

Juliana, I’m in lobe with your chicken pie, but once I saw these gorgeous baguettes, i had to comment! They are absolutely perfect. Is there anything you can’t bake/cook perfectly? Nope! Well done!!
