I'm not a huge fan of rice flour but it was all the shop had and I was forced to take it. In these bagettes it doesn't matter so much as it's not a sandwich bread and you're going to toast the slices anyway, but we thoroughly enjoyed it slathered in delicious homemade garlic butter! Note - if using a premixed flour blend such as Bobs Redmill or Doves Farm, use the total in grams of the 3 flours added together rsther than cup measurements - 708g

    Meanwhile preheat the oven to gas 7 / 220C / 450°F and fill a baking tray with an inch of water

  7. 7

    Put the bread tins in the middle of the oven with the tray of water on the bottom shelf and bake for 20 - 25 minutes
