Bake at 350°F for 25-30 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Allow to slightly cool before slicing into the bread. Top Tip: Shape the low carb french baguette so that more bread is exposed to the air. In other words, try not to make it flat and wide, allow more to be exposed to the hot air.
Gently roll dough with hands to form into a classic baguette shape, about 15 inches long. Let rise on a baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal (or greased) for 90 minutes. Make 3-4 large diagonal slashes on the top, using a serrated knife at a 45 degree angle. Spritz with warm water to help give the bread a crispy exterior.
