Ingredients
- 1 cup Water
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 3.5 cups Bread flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Cooked and crumbled bacon
Directions
Step 1
Gather all ingredients and ensure your bread machine is clean and ready to use.
Step 2
Pour the water, milk, unsalted butter, sugar, and salt into the bread pan of your bread machine, starting with the liquids as per most bread machine instructions.
Step 3
Add the bread flour on top of the liquids, creating a dry base layer. Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the instant yeast into the indentation, avoiding any contact with the liquids.
Step 4
Set your bread machine to the basic or white bread setting (usually about 3-4 hours) and select the loaf size that matches the ingredient quantities (typically 1.5- or 2-pound loaf). Begin the bread-making cycle.
Step 5
Once the machine signals for additional ingredients (usually during the kneading phase), add the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon. Ensure they are evenly distributed by manually stirring them into the dough if necessary.
Step 6
Allow the bread machine to complete the cycle, including kneading, rising, and baking. Avoid opening the lid during the baking process to ensure even cooking.
Step 7
When the bread is done, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts. Turn the bread out onto a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing.
Step 8
Slice and enjoy your homemade cheese and bacon bread warm, or store it in an airtight container for up to 3 days. This bread pairs wonderfully with soups or as the base for sandwiches.
