Generally most of these recipes would need around 20 minutes rather than 45 when using instant rising yeast. Also temperatures above 80 degrees F will cause overly fast rising. Small amounts ( be careful ) of salt will help retard rising as will excess sugar in the water the yeast is dissolved in. And you may prefer to try reducing the amount of yeast, if your dough is tripling when you want doubling, cut yeast down by 1/3. I always consult the Joy of Cooking, when I have these kinds of questions. I highly recommend it should be the basis of a required course in middle school. Mike <[log in to unmask]> in Kansas USA
