Gather all the ingredients. Ensure your bread machine is clean and ready for use.
Add the warm water (110°F/45°C), olive oil, and honey to the bread machine pan.
Sprinkle the salt evenly over the liquid ingredients.
Gently add the bread flour, ensuring it completely covers the liquid layer. Do not stir.
Create a small well in the center of the flour (do not let it reach the liquid), and add the active dry yeast.
Sprinkle the dried minced onions, garlic powder, dried parsley, dried basil, and dried oregano over the flour layer, avoiding the yeast well.
Set the bread machine to the basic white bread cycle, select your preferred crust color (light, medium, or dark), and press start.
Once the cycle completes, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts, and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely—about 30–45 minutes—before slicing.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or freeze for longer storage.
