Here’s the sourdough ciabatta recipe I mentioned in the video:

This SOURDOUGH CIABATTA recipe requires no special equipment/techniques

i followed the recipe exact. the dough was very sticky during shaping. could it be too much water in the mix?

I have recommended your videos and recipes to about a dozen newbies and people having difficulties. You have never failed me in the 2 years of my sourdough journey. I am thankful for your easy to follow instructions and how you simplify things. Thanks, Grant for caring and sharing.

Can I shape, cover & keep overnight in my baguette pan, then bake in the morning for a longer ferment?

[modernnailsk]

I made them and OH MY are they so delicious! Thankyou so much for sharing this. No fuss my kind of easy going recipe. I’m such a newbie and it was so nice to finally get something right.

Love this! I ended up going with all-purpose flour only and it turned out great! Doubled the recipe and my family still ate them all in one day 😅😅😅

I just made these for the first time using a regular airbake sheet pan. They turned out surprisingly well! If I wanted to up my game, should I buy a Challenger bread pan or a baking steel? Can the baking steel achieve the oven spring a Challenger bread pan can? I also made your ciabatta and it was amazing! I just want to get bigger oven spring. Thanks! x

Fantastic recipe. I had to leave my dough in the fridge for about 60 hours. Didn't think they'd be very good, how wrong was I. Love your recipes Ciabatta next

[tinamohankumar]

Thank you Grant. This is a great recipe. My baguettes are baking, can't wait to see how they turn out. I follow all your sourdough recipes. You make it easy to handle.

[cathryngagnon]

Thank you for this recipe. I successfully made Baguettes. I really enjoy your baking tips. 😊

[antonijaneralic]

what is the procedure if I put the formed baguettes in the refrigerator overnight? how long should I keep them at room temperature for baking?

[meinardwolters]

Hi, i tried your recept today. My dough was wetter then i saw on your youtube video.
Wat can that be? I followed your instructies. Greetings

[zebrastuhl]

Thank you for all the great recipes! Your sourdough recipes are so great because they basically follow the same recipes + processing steps with little adjustments.

That takes a lot of mental load of the process after doing it 1-2 times.
No one does is that way. Keep going mate! Definitely buying the book

Hello! @grantbakes! What can I use if I don’t have a stone ?

[Sarah-sbji]

My dough is bulk fermenting as I type this -- can't wait to see how it turns out!! What does the AP flour do to make this different than your regular medium hydration SD? The proportions are the same 450-325-100-10, except subbing half AP.

Excellent video Grant! Thanks so much for sharing. I use your recipe for sourdough bread all the time (much to the delight of friends and family), but I hadn't tried baguettes. I will now. Thanks again!

[AlexandraAndStuff]

This is an amazing result to achieve at home. Congratulations. I consider myself a quite capable home baker, but I just cannot, for the life of me, make my baguette dough rise properly. It's always a flat bread. Now I have to wait till the frustration from the last attempt dies down, and I will try this one.

[kristinrae]

Would these work as well on a sheet pan or should I buy a stone?

[lorikaiser]

At what point should I add olives or herbs?

[CarolePenhaleKing]

Can you use this recipe for a french loaf. Or artisian loaf

[HR-tkdb]

Thanks Grant! Looking forward to trying this recipe out.
