Basic White Bread

[mos]

Although I’m no longer a fan of white bread, I do understand that some folks aren’t going to give it up. So when invited to a potluck, based on what foods are coming, I may make this.
Basic White Bread
1-1/3 cups water
2 tbs butter
2 tsp salt
1 tbs plus 2 tsp sugar
4 cups bread flour
2 tbs nonfat dry milk
1-1/2 tsp active dry yeast
Place ingredients in bread pan in order listed or according to manufacturer’s directions. When adding the yeast last, make a small well with your finger to place the yeast. This will insure the proper timing of the yeast reaction.

Use basic (standard), rapid, timed cycles or according to manufacturer’s directions. Makes a 2 pound loaf.

Yeah, I know, it’s my recipe, but if I know that someone is bringing a cold-cut platter (and I always know who is bringing what), it is a welcomed side to bring! Who doesn’t love fresh-baked bread?!!
