Tips
We used the Gluten Free Pantry’s Country French Bread Mix as a straight substitution for flour. To purchase this product please click the link below in our Recommended Tools section.
For creme fraiche: Combine 2 cups cream with 2 tablespoons buttermilk and blend. Cover and let sit out on the counter for 24 to 48 hours. Refrigerate.
You can substitute cream for the creme fraiche if you prefer.
