White Bread (Bread Machine)

Since gallon ziploc bags aren't big enough to hold a 2 lb loaf of fresh baked bread, I decided to look for some bread boxes. I was sure that Tupperware would have one, but surprisingly they don't! I found this box on Amazon.com and I LOVE it :) It has a little vent at the end for humid climates. I open it when I first put the bread in the box, if it's warm bread. I close it after it's cooled a little to keep it moist.
While shopping for the box, I found this as a suggested item on the bread box page. It makes cutting slices soooooo much easier!
Anyway, for this recipe... I wanted a PB&J sandwich for lunch this afternoon, but I don't like wheat or cracked wheat bread, so I made a loaf of this white bread for myself. The recipe is pretty simple!
1 cup water
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 Tbsp honey
1 tsp salt
3 cups bread flour (all-purpose works as well)
1, 1/4 oz package active dry yeast
  • Place ingredients in to bread machine in the order suggested by the manufacturer.
