I successfully make a lot of no-knead rustic breads but this is my first attempt at sandwich bread (and my first time using a KitchenAid mixer to knead it). I have tried this recipe 4 times and have yet to get it to rise properly (too wet, too dry, possibly old yeast, etc.). By the 4th time I thought I had it right but it still didn't rise properly. I just realized my loaf plan is for a 2 lb loaf ( I knew it was bigger but didn't realize it was THAT much bigger). Do you think the considerably larger plan is my problem? If so, should I double the recipe? Get a new pan that is a standard size? Thanks for your advice. ~ joanne
