    Looks good enough to eat! Congratulations! For future reference, to keep the top from cracking, there are several possibilities to help. Perhaps your loaf was under proofed (didn’t get to rise long enough.) Or you need some hydration in your oven, a shallow pan of water on lower shelf, or even spray water inside as you put the loaf in. And finally, check your oven heat temperature. Baking bread is a wonderful, creative, fulfilling art, the more you do it, the better you’ll become! You’re now an official bread maker!!
