Add in the eggs, vegetable oil, milk and water and mix well with a spoon until the texture of your mixture is between that of a bread dough and the batter of a cake mix, adding more water if necessary.
• Pour mixture into greased pan and bake for 30mins. Brush the melted butter over the top and continue to bake for another 15 mins or until golden brown and butter knife comes out clean from the middle.
• Cut in squares and serve warm with butter or jam.

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients together and knead for thirty to forty seconds.
• Let rise (about forty minutes) and knock down and knead for thirty seconds.

• (Or let the bread machine do all the kneading and timing for you and go beach combing until it's time to cook the dough!) Allow final rise in a bread pan, about forty minutes, and preheat oven to 425 f.
• Place in oven and decrease temperature to 350 f.
• Bake for thirty minutes.
