I am new to using the bread machine. I've tried this recipe and love the result, however my dough is too sloppy when it comes out of the machine to form in any way. During the second proofing (I use the proof program on my oven) it rises well but immediately sinks when I remove it from the oven. The loaf will rise somewhat while baking but not as much as during the second proof. What am I doing wrong, any ideas? Thanks

This bread was awesome! I have always made my bread in the complete bread cycle in my bread machine and we love it, but I wanted a oven baked loaf today. So I decided to try this recipe.....I did question the 1 1/2 cups of water, but my dough came out perfect on the dough cycle. I formed it into a loaf and put it into a my stoneware bread pan and let it rise 45 minutes. I then baked for 35 minutes at 350 degrees.
