Measure and add the water into the bread pan of your bread machine.
Sprinkle the rolled oats evenly over the water.
Add the milk powder, salt, brown sugar, and softened butter into the bread pan, spacing out the ingredients for even mixing.
Gently spoon the bread flour into the pan, ensuring it covers the water and wet ingredients completely.
Make a small indentation in the center of the flour but avoid reaching the wet ingredients. Add the instant yeast to this indentation.
Insert the bread pan into the bread machine and secure it into place according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Select the basic or white bread setting on your bread machine. Choose the desired crust color (light, medium, or dark) and start the machine.
Allow the bread machine to complete the kneading, rising, and baking processes, which typically take about 3 hours.
Once the baking cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts or heat-resistant gloves.
Invert the bread pan over a cooling rack and gently coax the bread out to cool. Let the bread cool completely before slicing to preserve its texture.
