FAQ:
Why is my dough not rising?
Ensure your water is warm (not too hot or cold), as yeast works best in a warm environment. If the water is too hot, it could kill the yeast, and if too cold, it won’t activate.

Can I use instant yeast instead of active dry yeast?
Yes, you can use instant yeast. You don’t need to dissolve it in warm water; you can add it directly with the flour.

Can I make this bread in a bread machine?
Yes, this recipe can be used in a bread machine, simply following the manufacturer’s instructions for adding ingredients and using the dough cycle.
