My Japanese Milk Bread loaves always seem to split on the sides during baking.

I’ve used both [King Arthur Flour’](https://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/japanese-milk-bread-rolls-recipe)s recipe and [Red Star Yeast’s](https://redstaryeast.com/recipes/milk-bread/).

The bread is otherwise great, but I’m having a hard time researching where I’m going wrong. Am I under proofing? Rolling the sections too tightly?
