HERB GARLIC BAGUETTES
Another recipe from the Instructions and Recipes booklet which came with my KitchenAid mixer. It's actually very similar to my Herb Batter Bread, but with the addition of the garlic and that the loaves are baguettes. Prep time includes mincing the garlic cloves in a mini-chopper, but does NOT include rising times.

Steps:
- Spray counter lightly with non-stick cooking spray. If using rolls, combine them together to make a ball. Flatten dough into a rectangle. In a small bowl, combine parsley, basil, rosemary, garlic powder, onion powder and pepper. Sprinkle over the flattened dough. Fold the rectangle in half enclosing seasonings and knead until evenly mixed throughout the dough. Divide dough in half and roll each half into a baguette shape, about 16 inches long. Place on a sprayed baking sheet. Make 4 or 5 cuts across the top of each one 1/4-inch deep and brush with olive oil. Cover with sprayed plastic wrap and let rise until double in size. Remove wrap and bake at 350°F 10-15 minutes. Cool, slice and enjoy dipped in olive oil and seasoned balsamic vinegar.
Tips:
- Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. Dried herbs can be used, but they will not be as flavorful.
- Chop the herbs finely so that they distribute evenly throughout the dough.
- Use a variety of herbs to create a complex flavor profile. Some good combinations include rosemary, thyme, and sage; basil, oregano, and marjoram; or chives, parsley, and dill.
- Be careful not to overwork the dough, or it will become tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1-2 hours.
- Bake the baguettes in a preheated oven until they are golden brown. This will take about 20-25 minutes.
- Serve the baguettes warm with your favorite accompaniments, such as butter, cheese, or soup.
