Easy Homemade (Bread Machine) Bread

I have been making this recipe for years and we love it.  I love it because it is not only delicious, it is super easy.  You simply put the ingredients in your bread machine and make the dough, then put the dough in a pan and bake in the oven.  ​

You might ask, Why not bake it in the bread machine?  I don't like the shape of bread that I have baked in my bread machine.  I much prefer the more natural looking shape of a bread pan and the warmth and aroma of baking in the oven. ​

Anyone else been baking more during quarantine?  There is something so wonderfully comforting about both the process of making something and enjoying the fruits of your labor (although this is really not difficult).  

If you don't have a bread machine, you can see the original recipe at Tammy's Recipes.  Her original recipe is for whole wheat bread.
