Indulge in the irresistible charm of our Gluten-Free Cheese Baguette, a recipe that perfectly combines the traditional allure of artisan bread with a modern gluten-free twist. Made with a blend of gluten-free all-purpose flour and tapioca flour, this baguette achieves a delightful balance of soft and chewy texture. Infused with Gruyère cheese for a rich, nutty flavor profile, every bite is a savory treat. The addition of xanthan gum ensures structure and elasticity, while a warm rise allows the dough to develop beautifully before baking to golden perfection. Ideal for serving alongside soups, salads, or as a standalone snack, this baguette is the ultimate choice for those seeking gluten-free comfort foods without sacrificing taste. Easy to prepare and featuring simple, wholesome ingredients, this recipe will be a showstopper in any kitchen.
In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
In a separate large mixing bowl, add the gluten-free all-purpose flour, tapioca flour, salt, and xanthan gum. Mix until well combined.
Create a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add the eggs and olive oil, then pour in the yeast mixture.
Using a hand mixer with dough hooks or a stand mixer, mix the ingredients until a smooth dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky.
Fold in the grated Gruyère cheese, ensuring it's evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes. It should nearly double in size.
Preheat your oven to 220°C (428°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly flour a surface with gluten-free flour. Transfer the dough to this surface and shape it into two long baguettes.
Place the baguettes on the prepared baking sheet. Use a sharp knife to make a few diagonal slashes across the top of each baguette.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the baguettes are golden brown and make a hollow sound when tapped on the bottom.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your delicious gluten-free cheese baguette!
