That’s just anus bread.
Somebody baking buns.
Shai-Hulud!
Overproofed, I suspect. Overproofed bread also tends to be a bit pale as in photo.
Because the over-proofed bread had risen so much before it hit the oven’s heat, there was no more capacity for additional expansion in the oven. It rose; it fell; it collapsed. Still tastes good, but not a pretty picture.

Its your bread, you can do whatever you want with it. But i don’t think you’re supposed to fuck the bread.
The recipe said to fill with seeds for added texture
Next time sift the collapsing star out of the flour bin. The event horizon really slows the proofing down as it sucks the yeast in.
Did it taste a lemon?
I was gonna ask if it was sour dough.
Looks like over-proofing to me. Letting the dough rest for too long weakens the gluten and the dough deflates.
Old yeast?
Had a couple loaves do that because the yeast was old and only had enough oomph to do the first proof.
If you store yeast in the freezer it should last significantly longer without going off. I’ve got 5 year old yeast that still performs when I want it to.
I buy the jars instead of the packets and have started refrigerating them. May go ahead and start putting the extras in the freezer. Nice tip.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen it in jars here! We just have either the little packets or a big, flour sack kind of bag to buy it in. Jars sound nice because they’ll keep the moisture out much better.
Now I’m just imagining the scene from Young Frankenstein, but with yeast.
I should call her

You’ve created a Fleshloaf
Instead of dessicant powder, next time they could try adding yeast.
But it said “do not eat” on the packet and I’m a rebel.
Not gonna lie. I would but-fuck that loaf.
Mmm… Butthole loaf. 🤤
You did it, didn’t you?
This is when I just cut the top off and eat it and the rest of the loaf just looks fine usually.
Smaller loaf, sure… But delicious nontheless
