Add the water, vegetable oil, salt, and sugar to the bread machine's pan in the order specified by your machine's manual (typically liquids first, then dry ingredients).
Layer the bread flour over the liquid ingredients to create an even layer, ensuring it completely covers the liquid.
Sprinkle the dried minced onion and onion powder over the flour layer.
Using a spoon, create a small well in the center of the flour (but avoid reaching the liquids). Add the instant dry yeast into this well.
Secure the bread machine’s pan into the machine and select the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' cycle, with a medium crust setting, if available. Press 'Start'.
Check the dough after about 5–10 minutes of kneading to ensure it forms a smooth ball. If the dough is too dry, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time; if too wet, add 1 tablespoon of flour at a time.
Allow the bread machine to run its entire cycle, including kneading, rising, and baking.
Once the bread is cooked and the cycle is complete, carefully remove the pan from the machine using oven mitts. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing.
