Ingredients FLOUR The type of flour used is important. You cant use ordinary plain flour for making bread. Buy flour with strong or bread in its title. The commonest is normally marketed as strong white flour. These strong or bread flours contain more gluten than ordinary baking flour.
SUGAR Sugar activates and feeds the yeast, allowing it to grow. It adds flavour and texture, and helps with browning the crust. Many sachet yeasts do not need sugar to activate. Honey, syrup, or molasses may be used instead of sugar, provided the liquid ingredient is adjusted to compensate.

Troubleshooting What to do if: THE BREAD COLLAPSED The dough may have been too moist. Reduce the recipe liquid by 2 tbsp. If tinned fruit was used, it may not have been properly drained. Leaving the bread in the bread pan while it cools can cause moisture released in the baking process to soak back into the bread.
