Our GF Baguette recipe below:
Ingredients

300g Gluten Free Nomad's 1:1 All Purpose Baking Flour

1.5 tsp instant yeast

1 tsp salt

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 cup warm water (37°C)


Method

  1. In a large bowl, add in the water and oil
  2. Add flour, yeast and salt
  3. Mix together to form a sticky wet dough. If you notice your dough isn't wet and sticky, add in a little more warm water (1 tbsp at a time until your dough is sticky)
  4. Transfer dough on to a sheet of baking paper and place another sheet of baking paper on top
  5. Use a rolling pin to spread the dough to form a rectangle (approx. 30cm long)
  6. Roll the dough in to a log (by lifting the long end)
  7. Rest in a warm spot for 45min to 1h until the dough has doubled in size
  8. Preheat oven to 220°C (if you want the bread to rise, you need to create steam by placing ice cubes on the bottom shelf)
  9. Generously brush with oil and score the top of the loaf with a sharp knife
  10. Bake for 30min until golden brown crispy
  11. Immediately transfer to a wire rack to cool so that the crust stays crispy
  12. Slice up and enjoy!

Baking Tips for the Best Gluten Free Baguette

For the best bakery-style results:

  • Keep the dough sticky—this helps create a lighter crumb.
  • Steam is essential. Adding ice cubes to the oven creates steam, allowing the baguette to rise before the crust sets.
  • Don't skip scoring the dough, as this controls expansion during baking.
  • Transfer the bread to a wire rack immediately after baking to maintain a crisp crust.
  • Allow the baguette to cool before slicing for the best texture.
