I cover and back in the oven. It always rises at least double in size in the oven. I let it bake for 35 min with the lid and then 15 min without the lid.

Truth is that i usually double the recipe as my pot is pretty large.

But it always came out great.
Thank you Talida I'll give this a try and see if I can get it to work better for me. I don't have a large glass pot but I have a stainless steel one that I'm going to try out with the water. I'll let you know how it turns out.
