Bread cracks. It just does. Most people say it's because the bread wants to rise a little more after the hot oven "sets" or crusts the outside.

It's possible your oven is too hot, or you haven't let it rise enough.

Most bread bakers, including commercial bread bakers make their own relief cut with a sharp knife. Slit it down the center, or several times diagonally.

...Then put butter in it
