Add the warm water, milk, and unsalted butter to the bread machine pan.
Sprinkle the sugar and salt evenly over the liquid ingredients.
Add the bread flour to the pan, ensuring it covers the liquid completely.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the active dry yeast into the well. Be careful not to let the yeast touch the liquid ingredients.
Close the lid of the bread machine and select the basic or regular bread setting. Choose the medium crust option if available.
When the machine beeps for additional ingredients (usually after the first knead cycle), add the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese.
Allow the bread machine to complete the baking process, which typically takes around 3–3.5 hours depending on the machine.
Once the bread is finished, carefully remove it from the bread machine pan and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
