BBD #52 – Rustic Baguette triolette

My dear virtual friend Cinzia from Cindystar recently spent a long week-end in Paris. Envy! Accordingly she invites us to bake French Bread for this month’s Bread Baking Day.

I already baked quite a lot of French bread – the best Croissants, Brioche and Baguette for my bread baking project.

So the question was, what should I bake? Finally I decided to go for Baguette. It goes without saying I could not bake a traditional Baguette for this BBD, even there is no other bread more French than plain Baguette.

Rustic Baguette triolette

My version is more healthy. The dough contains whole wheat flour, different seeds and the shaping makes it special. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to shape nice pointed ends, so my Baguettes have a very rustic touch. But there are nice looking anyway, aren’t they?
