Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Water
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Instant yeast
Instructions
Add the ingredients to your bread machine's pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, wet ingredients go in first, followed by dry ingredients, and finally yeast on top.
Ensure that the yeast does not come into contact with the liquid if your machine requires a delayed start.
Program the bread machine to the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' setting and select your desired crust color (light, medium, or dark).
Start the machine and allow it to mix, knead, rise, and bake the bread automatically.
When the cycle completes, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts (it will be hot!).
Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing.
Store leftover bread in an airtight container or plastic bag to maintain freshness.
