2lb Basic White French Bread From Breadman Recipe Healthygenius Kitchen

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to Bread Pan in the order given.

Steps:

• 1. Put ingredients in bread machine pan in the order listed. Set the machine for white bread, crust to your preference. Turn it on! In about 3 hours you have a wonderful HUGE loaf of homemade white bread. Perfect texture to use as sandwich bread, too. I love it warm, either from the machine or stick a slice into the microwave, with butter. YUMMY.
• 2. If you haven't been able to quite get it right before, you will with this recipe. A tip is to watch it while it mixes. The dough should wind up barely sticky, it should go around in the pan sticking occasionally. Add flour slowly if it sticks to sides and doesn't go around in the pan. It shouldn't be so dry that it just goes around in circles though.

Steps:

• Measure and add liquid ingredients to the baking pan.
• Measure and add oil to baking pan.
• Measure and add dry ingredients (except yeast) to the baking pan.
• Sprinkle the yeast on top of the flour.
• Snap the baking pan into the breadmaker and close the lid.
• Choose the "Basic" setting.
• Choose the "Light" crust color setting.
• Press start.
• Remove the baking pan after about 55 minutes of the baking period.
• Gently shake the bread loaf out of the baking pan onto a cooling rack.
• If necessary, remove the kneading blade from the loaf. Be careful, it is hot!
• Set the loaf upright, cover with a dishtowel and let cool for 20 minutes.
