Flat top help
NuBie trying to learn bread making but usually end up with something like the attached pic. Tried different recipes from the web & books. Everything seems to go like the instructions but when I pull the loaf out of the oven - things seem to differ. This is sandwich bread. I have tried different recipes, bread flour, gen purpose flour, high in the oven, low in the oven, pre-heated oven, non pre-heated oven, few minutes of machine kneading, several minutes of kneading and 9 times out of 10 I get something like this. Some times only the middle (lengthwise) drops and the ends are normal looking, others like this. I don't believe everything on the internet, but all the vids I tried look like this when the person on the other end who knows what they are doing pulls something to be proud of out of the oven and I get this. It has to be something on my side of the bread pan that is wrong. The inside is fine, no large holes, and it tastes fine it just looks like it was dropped. Any ideas
