Easy White Bread - ABM

Sometimes you just need a reliable, no-fuss loaf that works for everything from morning toast to lunchbox sandwiches.

This streamlined formula uses a combination of milk and water for a balanced crumb that’s neither too rich nor too lean, with just enough sugar to feed the yeast and give the crust a hint of caramelization.

The butter (or applesauce for a lighter option) keeps the texture soft and helps the bread stay fresh longer, while bread flour provides the gluten structure that gives you those perfect, even slices.

Just follow your machine’s instructions for layering ingredients, press start, and walk away until the aroma of baking bread fills your kitchen.

Kitchen Tips

• Check the dough 10 minutes into kneading; it should form a smooth ball that slightly sticks to the sides
• For a richer flavor, substitute half the water with additional milk
• Let the loaf cool completely before slicing to prevent squashing the soft interior
