Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.25 cups Warm water
- 0.5 cups Ricotta cheese
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 0.75 teaspoons Salt
- 2 cups Bread flour
- 1 teaspoon Active dry yeast
Instructions
Add all ingredients to your bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, liquids go in first, followed by dry ingredients, and yeast is added last.
Start the bread machine on the basic or white bread setting for a 1-pound loaf. Choose the medium crust setting if your machine allows customization.
During the initial mixing stage, check the dough. If it appears too wet or too dry, adjust by adding small amounts of water or flour, one tablespoon at a time, until the proper consistency is achieved (smooth and slightly tacky).
Let the bread machine complete the kneading, rising, and baking process.
Once the cycle is complete, carefully remove the loaf from the bread machine pan. Let it cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing to allow the bread to set properly.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
