Add the ingredients to your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer (typically liquids first, followed by dry ingredients, and yeast last).
Start the bread machine on the 'Dough' setting. This will mix, knead, and allow the dough to rise.
When the dough cycle is complete, remove the dough from the machine and place it on a lightly floured surface.
Shape the dough into a rectangular log that fits the dimensions of your Pullman loaf pan (usually 13 x 4 x 4 inches). Make sure the dough is smooth and evenly distributed.
Place the dough into the Pullman loaf pan and cover it with the sliding lid. Allow the dough to rise in a warm environment for about 45-60 minutes, or until it almost reaches the top of the pan.
Preheat your oven to 190Β°C (375Β°F) during the final 15 minutes of the proofing time.
Once the dough is ready, slide the lid of the Pullman pan fully closed and bake the bread in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Carefully remove the pan from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before removing the bread from the pan.
Place the bread on a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving.
