Hi, made this for the second time today. The first time I knew it wasn't right as soon as I started mixing it. I killed the yeast by adding it too soon. Not easily defeated, I tried it again today. I could tell right away that I didn't kill the yeast, I had a nice soft dough. This time however I did not get very much "oven spring". My loaves did not rise in the oven much more that the inch above the rim of the loaf pan. They smell delicious, just don't have that high rise look of the ones in the pictures.
