Easy Baguette for any cook!

Subway has the best bread! There is one secret to achieving the Subway bread at home and it so easy you will be the best cook on the block!

It's DeMarle at Home silform bread tray!http://www.mydemarleathome.com/shop/productdetail.aspx?prod=SF000295 Don't forget that all our pans need the perforated pan to perform at their best!

This recipe is SO easy and it's fat free too! Its from the Demarle at Home Beginnings and Endings Cookbook.

Crusty Fat-Free Bread 

Ingredients: 
1 envelope rapid-rise dry yeast
2 cups lukewarm water 
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
4 1/2 to 5 cups all purpose flour
Seasonings on choice (I used herbs de provence)

(2 cups of boiling water in a oven proof dish on bottom rack)

In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add salt and sugar and mix well. Beat in flour, one cup at a time, with a wooden spoon until a smooth ball forms clearing the sides of the bowl. Cover and set aside in a warm place until it doubles in size (about one hour). Flour your hands and put a little flour on the Roul' Pat (yep, it is some sticky dough even for a Roul' Pat!) Knead a few times (if you can, its pretty sticky!) Cut the dough in half, and then in half again so you have 4 balls. Don't use anything sharp on the Roul' Pat or bread form! Place oven rack in center and heat oven to 400 degrees F. Place your pan (I used my sunflower mold on another pan) on the lowest bottom rack. Then pour your boiling water in the pan. While the oven is heating, shape your dough into 4 baguette shapes on the silform tray with your perforated pan under it. Let them sit until oven is ready. Apple small slits into the bread, lightly brush with olive oil and sprinkle on the seasoning mix. Bake for 25-30 minutes until crusty and brown.
And there you have it, your own Subway bread at home!
