It could be happening for one (or both) of the following reasons: <b>1)</b> The gluten was not properly developed. <b>2)</b> The bread was allowed to rise too long. The dough should only double in size. The other day my sister baked a loaf made with soft white wheat. The flour just didn't contain enough gluten, and the bread fell in the oven. It's best to use hard red or white wheat for baking bread. I hope this helps! P.S. My blog has moved to a new location: www.cookingforseven.com. In future, please do not comment on this blog. Thanks!

In the past when I've made 100% whole wheat bread it rises beautifully and then I put it in the preheated oven to bake and it falls. Why is this happening?

Growing up, my mom made a split soup very often, but never pureed. I think croutons are a must when it come to this soup :) I really like the addition of the sweet potato.
