Although we love whole grains here, sometimes you just need or want,  plain, white bread.

Thrifty, and excellent for sandwiches, grilled sandwiches, and toast.

1 & 1/3 cups warm water

1 & 1/2 teaspoons sea salt

2 tablespoons white sugar

1/4 cup regular olive oil

4 & 1/2 cups bread flour

1 & 3/4 teaspoons yeast. I use bread machine yeast in the bread machine.

Load bread machine in the order your machine recommends. Mine starts with the liquid first. Be sure to spray the inside of your baking pan and the paddle, for super easy cleanup. Very important to add the yeast last;  and to make a “well” in the flour, to put the yeast into! 

We like a soft crust on this bread. Set machine for 2 lb. loaf, light crust, and regular cycle. The regular cycle is usually the first option in the menu.

When we were a busy homeschool family, I ran our bread machine every, single, day. ☺️

Happy homemaking!
