You kneaded in too much flour when you worked the dough. You added too little liquid or eggs or oil. You didn’t let it rise enough. The recipe I used last called for a one hour rise after the first kneading, then a half hour after the dough was punched down, and then another half hour once the loaves were shaped.

Which flour is best for challah?

Can challah rise too long?
Usually if it overrose just a bit, say, for an hour extra in a cold kitchen, it doesnt really matter. You simply punch it back down and go on to the shaping. However, if the dough is left out for a long time, unrefrigerated, it can spoil, especially in the summertime.
How many times should challah rise?
Let It Rise Twice
The second rise should be after shaping the Challah, and takes about 45-60 minutes. Let the bread sit on the counter to rise at room temperature as you preheat your oven to 350F/180C. Once done, it’s time to bake it.
