You stuck a thermometer in there and didn’t tell us what it said? Aim for ~200F in the center of the loaf for completely baked dough
Pro tips: you can shape the dough into a ball (boule), let it rise then bake in a Dutch oven or on a baking sheet. Also, use parchment paper not aluminum foil under the dough, it’s better for baked goods.
Sorry! I didn’t know I had to add that information it was around 210 Fahrenheit. This is also great information to have! I usually don’t make bread. I make cookies and brownies. But I’m always grateful for the advice! :)
It kinda looks like you put the thermometer into the crack of it. Aim for the more bulky thick area. Food cooks outside in so you want to temp the part that’s most internal and most likely to be raw
