Step 1

Add all the ingredients into your bread machine in the order listed. The wet ingredients should go in first, followed by the dry ingredients added on top, forming an "island" on top of the wet. Don't add the apple chunks yet.

Step 2

Turn on the bread machine and select "basic white" bread.

Step 3

Allow the machine to work the dough, watching it at the beginning to make sure it doesn't need a tablespoon or two more liquid to allow the dough to form.

Step 4

At the mix-in timer, add the diced apple pieces.

Step 5

Allow the bread machine to finish the load, proceeding through the rise and bake cycles.

Step 6

When the bake is complete, remove the loaf from the pan and allow it to cool completely on a rack before slicing.

Step 7

Enjoy!
