dough flopped??? I am making cinnamon buns from scratch. I made up the dough, it said to let it sit for 1 1/2 hrs to to double in size...well after an hour and 40 mins it didn't rise, should I throw it out and start over or is it salvageable?? Thanks

I Love making bread. Don't throw it out. Just let it rise in a warm place for a while longer, and if it STILL doesn't rise, try and move along with the recipe, if it doesn't work, either try a new recipe or try the same recipe again. Hope that helps

I love to bake bread and rolls and
have for years. It can be a little
tricky to do and whatever happens
with these cinnamon rolls, do NOT
give up!
You might try sitting your dough
someplace warm. It may take a
while but it may raise a little
more. Make sure you cover it with
a towel too.
Next time make sure you don't knead
it to long. I did that when I started
and it wouldn't raise very much.
Another cause is getting the water
to hot. Warm to the touch of your
fingertips is a good rule of thumb.
If it calls for punching it down
again, do that. Put it in a warm
place and see if it will raise.
If it does, but not much, go ahead
and make your rolls. They will
still taste good, just not as light.
You could also just roll the dough out,
cut it in strips and make cinnamon
bread sticks instead.
Just don't give up trying because
sooner or later you will get good
at it! :) ]
