Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Warm water
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons White granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 3.25 cups Bread flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
Instructions
Pour 1 cup of warm water into the bread machine's bread pan.
Add 0.25 cup of milk to the bread pan.
Place 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter into the bread pan. It is best to cut the butter into small pieces beforehand.
Add 2 tablespoons of white granulated sugar and 1.5 teaspoons of salt to the bread pan.
Measure and place 3.25 cups of bread flour into the pan, ensuring it sits on top of the wet ingredients.
Create a small well in the middle of the flour and add 2.25 teaspoons of active dry yeast. Do not let the yeast touch the wet ingredients.
Insert the bread pan into your Automatic Bread Machine and close the lid.
Select the 'Basic' bread setting on your machine, choose your crust color preference (light, medium, or dark), and press start.
Let the machine mix, knead, rise, and bake as per the selected cycle. This process typically takes around 3 hours.
Once the bread is fully baked, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts.
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing.
