Directions

Step 1

Add the warm water, olive oil, and honey to the breadmaker's pan.

Step 2

Sprinkle the salt evenly over the wet ingredients.

Step 3

Add the bread flour to the pan, ensuring it covers the liquid completely.

Insert the pan into the breadmaker and secure it properly.

Step 7

Select the basic white bread setting, with a light or medium crust setting depending on your preference. Start the machine.

Step 8

When the cycle is complete and the breadmaker beeps, carefully remove the pan using oven mitts (it will be hot).

Step 9
