- Snap the baking pan into the breadmaker and close the lid.
Select the Settings:

🥯 Baking times may vary depending on your breadmaker model. Keep an eye on your bread the first time to ensure it meets your preferences!

Tips for Success

Adjusting for Double Recipes: If you want to double the recipe for a larger loaf, remember to increase the yeast to 6 teaspoons to ensure proper rising.
Flavor Variations: Add ingredients like nuts, seeds, or dried fruits to customize your loaves! A handful of sunflower seeds or raisins can add a delightful crunch and sweetness.
Storage: Once cool, store your bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage. Wrap in plastic wrap and then foil before freezing to maintain freshness!

Enjoyment Ideas

Toast a slice for breakfast and top it with avocado, or use it as a base for a hearty sandwich piled high with your favorite meats and veggies. 🥑🥪
