Breads - Yeast Breads
FRENCH BREAD MINI LOAF

1/2 cup water
1/4 cup milk
1 tbsp honey
1 1/2 tsp olive oil (plus 1 tbsp for brushing on top)
1/2 tsp active dry yeast or instant yeast
1 1/4 tsp kosher salt (plus 1/2 tsp for sprinkling on top)
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour (or bread flour)

Combine water, milk, and honey in a microwave proof container and heat to between 105 and 115 degrees F.

Stir in yeast to heated water, milk and honey mixture and set aside to bloom for at least 5 minutes.

Add flour, salt, olive oil, and yeast mixture to an electric mixer bowl. Use the mixing paddle on the electric mixer until ingredients are just combined, then switch to the dough hook and run on medium speed for about 10 minutes.

Empty the mixing bowl on a plate and spray the mixing bowl with cooking spray. Add the dough back to the mixing bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise for about 60 minutes in a warm place.

After the dough has risen, empty the dough out of the bowl and gently press it down, forming it into a log shape or baguette to bake on a baking sheet. Spray the baking sheet with cooking spray and place the dough on the baking sheet. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for about an hour.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Make three slashes across the top of the loaf with a sharp knife. Brush the top with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with kosher salt.

When the oven is preheated, place the loaf into the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Enjoy!

FRENCH BREAD MINI LOAF (REV A)

1/2 cup water
1/4 cup milk
1 tbsp honey
2 tsp olive oil (plus 1 tbsp for brushing on top)
1/2 packet dry yeast or instant yeast
1 1/4 tsp kosher salt (plus 1/2 tsp for sprinkling on top)
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour (or bread flour)

Combine water, milk, and honey in a microwave proof container and heat to between 105 and 115 degrees F.

Stir in yeast to heated water, milk, and honey mixture and set aside to foam up for at least 5 minutes.

Add flour, salt, olive oil, and yeast mixture to a stand mixer bowl. Use the mixing paddle on the stand mixer until ingredients are just combined, then switch to the dough hook and run on medium speed for about 10 minutes. If dough is not coming together as a solid mass, add warm water one tablespoon at a time until dough comes together and forms a solid mass around the dough hook.

Empty the dough on a plate and spray the mixing bowl with cooking spray. Add the dough back to the mixing bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place for about 90 minutes.

After the dough has risen, empty the dough out of the bowl and gently press it down, forming it into a log shape or baguette to bake on a baking sheet. Spray the baking sheet with cooking spray and place the dough on the baking sheet. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for about an hour.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Make three slashes across the top of the loaf with a sharp knife. Brush the top with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with Kosher salt.
