Falling Bread

:( I am having trouble with my homemade bread. The flavor is wonderful, but EVERY time I bake, the bread falls in the middle. I have decreased baking temperature and increased cooking time; helped a little. I also added more xanthum gum; again helped a little. I am getting very frustrated. I also divided the bread into two pans. It always rises beautifully then falls flat. Any suggestions would be very much welcomed! Thanks so much!

you can try removing 3 tbsp. of the liquid, that usually helps & of course smooth out the top.

I second what mamaw says. I have high humidity here and so I have the same problem with bread falling that you are describing. I reduce the liquid by 3 Tbsp and increase the cooking time by about 5 minutes and my breads have been working. Good luck.

Thank you so much for your responses! I took out the 3 T and it helped. I have since tried a new recipe AND taken out 1/2 C + 2 T of the liquid AND I HAVE REAL BREAD! WOOO WHOOO! It is amazingly soft and has the consistency of soft white bread. My daughter and I were so excited and my husband and son are actually eating it also.

I agree!!!! Please share! I've tried at least a dozen recipes. Some of them had a great taste, but all are dense, and after the first day are dry. Thanks in advance. :)

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause? 
    • Aussienae
      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific? 
    • mishyj
      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
