Made and had similar issues as other commenters regarding very slow rise and short dense bread. BUT it tasted awesome! So, decided worth trying again. It's a rainy humid day here and the AC has not been turned on yet - kitchen temp 78 degrees. I mixed all ingredients together then allowed to sit for approx. 15 minutes. I did the bowl scrape 1/2 way through the knead and then added a 1/2 TBSP additional flour. Dough looked spot on and rose beautifully! I didn't want it to over rise in the pan so my loaf is a little shorter than I wanted but that's my fault. Wondering now the best way to make multiple loaves. I typically have a freezer stocked with store bought WW bread but if I can stock it with homemade I'd be thrilled! I'd like advice on doubling recipe and whether baking than freezing or freezing than baking would be best. Thanks for all you do at KAF!
