Add the ingredients to your bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, liquids like warm water, milk, and melted butter go in first, followed by dry ingredients such as sugar, salt, and bread flour.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the instant yeast. Ensure the yeast does not come into contact with the salt or liquids at this stage.
Place the pan into the bread machine and close the lid.
Select the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' setting on your bread machine. Choose your preferred crust color (light, medium, or dark) and loaf size if applicable.
Press the 'Start' button. The bread machine will handle the kneading, rising, and baking process automatically, which typically takes around 3 hours.
Once the cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts, as it will be hot.
Turn the pan upside down to release the bread onto a cooling rack. Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to ensure the best texture and flavor.
Store any leftover slices in an airtight container or plastic bag at room temperature for up to 2β3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
