White Bread Machine recipe

 

Ingredients

For large (1 1/2 to 2-pound) machine

• 1 cup (227g) lukewarm water
• 1/3 cup (74g) lukewarm milk
• 3 tablespoons (43g) butter
• 3 3/4 cups (450g) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
• 3 tablespoons (35g) granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons (9g) table salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast or instant yeast

For small (1-pound) machine

• 2/3 cup (152g) lukewarm water
• 1/4 cup (57g) lukewarm milk
• 2 tablespoons (28g) butter
• 2 1/2 cups (300g) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
• 5 teaspoons granulated sugar
• 1 1/4 teaspoons (8g) table salt
• 1 teaspoon active dry yeast or instant yeast

1. Weigh your flour; or measure it by gently spooning it into a cup, then sweeping off any excess. Put all of the ingredients into your machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer.

2. Program the machine for basic white bread, and press Start.

3. When the loaf is done, remove the pan from the machine. After about 5 minutes, gently shake the pan to dislodge the loaf, and turn it out onto a rack to cool.

4. Store, well-wrapped, on the counter for 4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
