Bread Machine (Dough Cycle)
1. Add all ingredients to your bread machine loaf pan in the order listed.
2. Select the Dough Cycle on your machine (approximately 90 minutes).
3. When the dough cycle is complete, remove the dough from the pan, gently press it out, and shape it into a loaf.
4. Place the shaped dough into a well-oiled bread loaf pan.
5. Let the dough rise until it reaches just over the edge of the pan.
6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 30 minutes.
7. Remove the loaf immediately from the pan to prevent sogginess from steam.
8. Optional: Brush with butter and cover with a clean tea towel to cool.
9. Slice after completely cooled for best crumb and texture.
Note: For this recipe, I made the 2 lb recipe and baked in an 8.5x4.5 in loaf pan. You can also divide the dough in half after the dough cycle, and bake in two 8.5×4.5 inch loaf pans for 28 minutes or a 10x5 inch loaf pan for 30 minutes. I typically make a 1.5 lb recipe and bake in one 8.5x4.5-inch loaf pan.
