Troubleshooting Baking Problems

If your bread does not turn out the way you expected or has some characteristic you don’t care for, review the chart below for some possible solutions.

Baking Problem

Solution

 

 

The sides of the bread collapse and the bottom of the bread is damp.

There are several possible solutions. The bread may have been left in the bread pan too long after baking. Remove the bread from the pan sooner and allow it to cool. Try using more flour (a teaspoon at a time), or less yeast (1/4 teaspoon at a time), or less water or liquid (a teaspoon at a time). This could also be the result of forgetting to add salt to the recipe.
