bread flops while baking
 

Hi
I am new in baking with a bread machine.
Often my bread falls in the middle while baking.
Can anybody help me ?
What's happening ?

Hi there,

New to this group, but I feel I can help out a bit here, maybe.

Bread "falling"in a breadmaker usually means that you have slightly too much
liquids in your dough. Experiment a little with taking out small amounts -
and i do mean small amounts- of liquid, either water or milk.

Cheers,

Bas

It can also be an issue with too much yeast.

If you can still find a copy of "Bread Machine Magic", the authors give
excellent advice on how to dial in the hydration of your bread machine
dough. That series is, im(ns)ho, the best of the bread machine cookbooks.
