Instructions

This is a recipe for a two-pound bread machine. Use the basic, white setting with medium crust.
Follow the instructions that came with your bread machine in terms of which order to add ingredients to your bread machine. I use a Zojirushi bread machine, so I add the liquids first.
Check on the dough after five or ten minutes of kneading. It should be a smooth, round ball.
If the dough is too dry add liquid a teaspoon at a time until it looks right. If it looks too wet, add flour a tablespoon at a time until it looks right.

Notes

This recipe makes a two-pound loaf of bread using the home made setting with the included program. Use the medium crust setting.
