I made 2 loaves of bread today. They rose beautifully, punched down, let rest again, chopped in half, placed in bread pan to rise. They rose, but - when put in the oven for what the recipe said 400 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes. The bread didn't continue to rise or stay risen, whatever, it didn't mound up beautifully like it should've. Also, I don't think it had time. Recipe called for 15 - 20 minutes. It was done and top crust burned in 11 minutes. The sides & bottom was a beautiful medium golden brown. The inside tasted good, but I still considered it a fail because it didn't come to the right finish. Any troubleshooting ideas appreciated.
