Divide the dough into 2 pieces with your hands.

Transfer the baguettes onto a tray, gently stretching them.

Bake at 250°C, top and bottom heat, for 18-22 minutes, until golden.
Tip
Don't use too little flour while shaping, since the dough is loose and very airy.
Common mistake
Shaping too aggressively will push the air out of the dough and the baguettes will turn out heavier.
Serving suggestion
Best for breakfast, for sandwiches, or with just butter.
