    Method

    • step 1

      Place ingredients in the tin so that the yeast and salt are as far apart as possible. Adding them in the order below is best, I find.
    • step 2

      Water, Salt, Sugar, Butter, Flour, Yeast. Do it like this and all should be fine.
    • step 3

      Cook on a setting for a 900g loaf, basic white, with a light crust for easy cutting.

    I looked at the ingredients and thought that the amount of sugar compared to other components wasn't balanced. OMG this is the best loaf I've ever made in my bread machine. Very light but sturdy (if you know what I mean) - Lovely flavour as well. This will be my standard loaf from now on,

    Delicious, I tried this recipe today and added sunflower seeds part way through. A lovely light, tasty and crusty large loaf. I will be using this as my main bread recipe in future. Thanks for the recipe.
