What causes my breed to fall in the middle sometimes?
Was still very good lol didn’t affect the taste at all or the fluffiness of the bread but sometimes ( not always ) it will fall in the middle? What causes this?

Oven collapse tends to indicate overproofing

Those jalapeño slices are too thick. You need to make them a lot thinner. They’re all weighing the loaf down.
If you use a mandoline to slice them super thin, be careful: you can easily filet your fingertips if you’re not paying attention.

All that cheese is heavy and those jalapeños are wet, it’s gonna collapse. This isn’t a very good way to bake bread, a dough with inclusions like cheese and jalapeños needs to get REALLY hot to bake completely, and the pan you are using can easily shatter. you should try to use a loaf pan at the very least. Focus on building enough strength in your dough and then get tension through shaping and putting in a loaf pan

My guess is the jalapeños are too wet
Either use pepper flakes or dry the jalapeños in the oven before affixing to the bread
If you’re intent on having them raw try dicing the jalapeños and mixing them along with the cheese into your dough.

It is under cooked, that could be one of the reasons, if you have a thermometer, temp it to 205f and let it rest
