I made this recipe last weekend and it was great- but tried again yesterday and ran into a problem I seem to get fairly frequently. The dough rises beautifully in the pan, but seems to collapse when it gets to the oven. Occasionally I have issues with the dough sticking to the cover during the rise causing problems when it's pulled off at the end, but there was no sticking going on here. What do you think I'm doing wrong? (Don't get me wrong, the taste was great and these loaves will NOT go to waste- more likely they will go to waist!)
This sounds like a problem with overproofing if your dough collapses when you put it into the oven. You can spray or oil your cover ( I assume you are using plastic) and that should take care of the sticking problem. Joan @bakershotlineg
