570 Reviews 4.7 out of 5 stars

King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour is perfect for bread machines. Its relatively high protein level (11.7%), and the quality of that protein, allows you to use it in recipes calling for either bread flour or all-purpose flour. This recipe makes a reliably high-rising loaf, with soft, springy texture and nicely balanced flavor.

Bread Machine Bread - Easy As Can Be

Instructions

Prevent your screen from going dark as you follow along.

  1. Weigh your flour; or measure it by gently spooning it into a cup, then sweeping off any excess. Put all of the ingredients into your machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer.

  2. Program the machine for basic white bread, and press Start.

  3. When the loaf is done, remove the pan from the machine. After about 5 minutes, gently shake the pan to dislodge the loaf, and turn it out onto a rack to cool.

  4. Store, well-wrapped, on the counter for 4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
