Wheat baguettes, because today I’m throwing out everything I’ve said so far about my blog. They should be quick recipes, without much effort and preferably with a gluten-free option. One should not be so strict with himself and therefore I thought I just make these delicious baguettes. Flours containing gluten currently have a bad image, even among people who can easily tolerate gluten. More specifically, classic flours and whole grain flours in particular provide a range of nutrients. That’s why I’m dedicating this post to good old wheat flour and all the organic farmers who passionately produce the finest flour without the use of pesticides.
Bake wheat baguettes yourself
Basically, the preparation is very simple and it requires only one essential component: patience. To say up front, it doesn’t make sense to tackle this recipe if you need it fast. Ideally, you have time and desire to bake this baguette yourself and like to take the time.
It only takes a few ingredients to make the crunchy breadsticks. Wheat flour (light) and whole wheat flour, yeast, salt and water. That’s all. On the first day, the so-called pre-dough is made and it is allowed to rise first at room temperature and then in the refrigerator. The predough consists solely of flour, yeast and water. The salt is added the next day, as well as the remaining yeast.

The dough is then gently rolled out, folded, portioned and shaped. Again and again, times are built in during which the dough is allowed to rise. This is important and ensures that it becomes as fluffy as possible.
I use a special baguette pan for baking, but any regular baking sheet will work.
TIP: A special baguette mold ensures that the dough sticks stay perfectly in shape during baking and gives them the typical pattern on the bottom.
