Ingredients:
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tbsp dried rosemary
– 1 tsp salt
– 1 tsp sugar
– 1 packet active dry yeast
– 1 1/4 cups warm water
– 1/4 cup olive oil
– 1 tsp garlic powder
– Extra olive oil for brushing
Directions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, dried rosemary, salt, and sugar.
2. In a separate small bowl, mix the active dry yeast with warm water. Let it sit for 5 minutes until the yeast becomes foamy.
3. Slowly pour the yeast mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.
4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, until it doubles in size.
6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
7. Punch down the risen dough and shape it into a baguette. Place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
8. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil and garlic powder. Brush the top of the baguette with the mixture.
9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the baguette turns golden brown.
10. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your freshly baked rosemary infused French baguette with a drizzle of olive oil on top.
