Step 1

Add the ingredients in the order listed to the bread maker pan. Select the basic/white bread setting, choose the 1.5 lb loaf size and your prefered crust color. These are instructions for a Cuisinart bread maker. For other brands, refer to the instruction manual for the correct order to add ingredients.

Step 2

Optional: At the end of the third kneading cycle, signaled with 6 beeps, remove the kneading paddle. If you miss this step, remove the paddle using oven mitts after the bread cools.

Step 3

When baking is complete, remove and cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before slicing.
