Despite some really interesting suggestions from other reviewers, I followed this recipe to the letter and it turned out fantastic! So light, fluffy and easy to make. My only complaint would be that the intoxicating smell of the bread woke me up at 5:00am. Something tells me that I may need to reset my timer!

YUM! I just made some of this but tweaked the recipe a bit. I used a half cup of milk and a half cup of water. I also used 1.5 cups of white flour, 1 cup of whole wheat flour, .5 cup of wheat germ and .5 cup of ground flaxseed for the 3 cups of flour the recipe calls for. Turned out fabulous! Lovely texture and good for you--will definitely make again and again.

I read several of the lowest ratings and they all said that the bread either did not rise or rose too much and then fell. Many of the disappointed bakers admitted that they added extra yeast. Well, that's the problem. Too much yeast. In this case, more is definitely not better. I fiddled around with my bread machine and found that the ideal amount of yeast for me is 5/8 of a teaspoon. For any bread recipe, not just this one, if the bread rises and then falls, leaving a depression in the top, try reducing the yeast an eighth of a teaspoon at a time until you get a good loaf. Trust me. Or, trust your bread machine manual. That's where I found the advice to reduce, not increase, the yeast.

Years ago when the bread machines just came out my grandpa use to make bread all the time and I really wish he had this recipe. This was my first attempt at making bread with a bread maker and even though this recipe goes against what the bread machine instructions say, dont worry about it!! This bread is perfect. Only thing I did differently than the original instructions was put 1/2 teaspoon more of salt. Fantastic!

Great recipe! I used about 3 Tbsp. canola oil & 1 Tbsp. olive oil, and upped the salt to 1.5 tsp. as recommended by others. I'm not sure if there's a difference between "bread machine flour" & bread flour - but I just used the bread flour as usual. I also just used 1 packet of regular yeast. So, SO delicious! The crust is beautifully crunchy, and the inside is fluffy & soft! Also, it smelled DIVINE while baking.

very good slicing bread, easy to make and rises really well. I used regular red star quick rise yeast. Add nuts for texture, a great recipe.

Easy and Good. I wouldn't say great, but still have it 5 stars because it was so easy and still had a good taste. Like another review, I did not have bread machine yeast nor flour. I used regular for both and it turned out fine.

Easy to make - I had all the ingredients on hand. However, my family just didn't rave about this bread. They said it was somewhat tasteless. I'll keep looking for the perfect bread recipe.

WOW!! So I've never made bread before and my parents bought me a bread machine so I thought I'd try this recipe out first! IT'S FANTASTIC!! I added in the extra bit of salt the other poster's recommended...I end up with tall beautiful loafs that are light and airy with a beautiful flaky crust (I didn't even know bread crust could be flaky!!)

The BEST white bread recipe. It is foolproof and very simple. I did substitute warm milk for the water. It came out very tender inside w/ wonderful crust. So simple but flavorful!

I added 3 tbsp sugar because I prefer sweeter bread and used 2 cups of whole wheat bread flour and 1 cup of all purpose flour. I was afraid of using this method because of the instructions that come with the machine, however, I did it this way and it turned out beautifully!! (I even had less yeast then recommended because I ran out - just under 2 tsp). A good solid basic bread recipe.

This bread is absolutely fabulous! I mixed the ingredients adding the yeast last, rather than the way on the recipe, and it was the best bread I have ever made in the machine. We will be making this one often!

This bread is awesome! I used 1.5 tsp salt, and used the basic white bread setting. It is delicious, light, and fluffy. After so many dense, heavy loaves, it's such a relief to find a recipe that turns out like FRESH BAKERY BREAD!

I've made a lot of bread machine bread and this one is my families favorites. I add a little more sugar though...heaping tablespoons full rather than spare. Quick and easy!
