Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Warm water
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 3 cups Bread flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
Instructions
Begin by ensuring all your ingredients are at room temperature for optimal results.
Add the ingredients to the bread machine pan in the following order: warm water, milk, unsalted butter, granulated sugar, salt, bread flour, and active dry yeast. Be sure to place the yeast on top of the flour to keep it from activating prematurely.
Secure the pan into your bread machine and select the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' cycle, depending on your machine options. Also, set your preferred crust color (light, medium, or dark) if the setting is available.
Start the machine and allow it to mix, knead, rise, and bake the bread automatically. The entire process usually takes around 3 to 3.5 hours.
Once the bread is finished baking, carefully remove the pan from the machine using oven mitts, as it will be hot.
Turn the pan upside down to release the loaf onto a cooling rack. If the loaf doesn't come out easily, gently shake or tap the bottom of the pan.
Allow the bread to cool completely (about 1 hour) before slicing to ensure the texture stays light and fluffy.
Slice and enjoy your fresh, homemade bread with butter, jam, or use it for sandwiches!
