Excellent loaf. I used bread flour and when using bread flour, you need to reduce the yeast. My loaf over-flowith. It did get bigger than it was supposed to, but it was very good. Very easy, really does only take 5 minutes. 5 stars!

This is a great recipe!! Loved the addition of onion soup mix! BF thought it was great - perfect for sopping up gravy!

Finally, a basic bread machine recipe that doesn't use dry milk (or any at all, for that matter). I used bread flour and the full amount of yeast, and it came out great. This recipe should be marked vegetarian and vegan, btw (when made with vegetable shortening).
