This bread machine butter bread recipe creates a delicious bread that tastes sort of like a buttery croissant. My boys love butter bread as a sandwich bread. I like it for breakfast… as I don’t have to spread any butter on top! This butter bread recipe uses a bread machine to create a 2 lb bread loaf.

Instructions
Bread Machine settings – 2 pound loaf, light color and ”basic” bread setting.
Unplug bread machine & remove bread pan.
Add all ingredients starting with the milk into the bread machine “bucket” (bread pan). Then place bread pan into the bread machine.
Plug in bread machine. Enter the correct settings (2 lb, light color & basic bread) and press the “start” button.
When the bread machine has finished baking the bread, unplug the bread machine. Remove the bread pan from the bread machine. Then remove the bread from the bread pan and place it on a cooling rack. Use oven mitts when removing the bread machine container (bread loaf pan) as it will be very hot!
After removing the bread, don't forget to remove the mixing paddle if it is stuck in the bread. Use oven mitts as the mixing paddle will be very hot coming out of the bread machine. Or wait until the bread is completely cooled and then remove the mixing paddle.
In our Sunbeam bread machine, the baking takes about 3 hours for a 2 pound bread at the light color & basic bread settings. However, some machines can differ and you don’t want to be away from home when the bread machine “finished” alarm goes off! Your bread machine should show you the length of the baking time after you have entered the settings into the machine. This will allow you to know when to be in the kitchen to remove the bread.
Before using your bread machine, you should read the bread machine manufacturer's instructions in order to use the bread machine effectively and safely.
