Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup pineapple juice room temperature
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • ¼ cup milk
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter softened
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups bread flour
  • 2 ½ teaspoons instant yeast

Equipment

  • Bread maker machine
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Small whisk or fork
  • Bread knife

Method
 

Step 1: Prepare the liquids
  1. I pour the pineapple juice, milk, eggs, and softened butter into the bread maker pan. This makes the dough rich and slightly sweet.
Step 2: Add dry ingredients
  1. Next, I add the bread flour, sugar, and salt. I always make sure the flour covers the liquids before sprinkling in the yeast on top.
Step 3: Set the bread maker
  1. I choose the basic/white bread setting with a medium crust. My bread maker usually takes around 3 hours from start to finish.
Step 4: Let the bread bake
  1. I resist the urge to lift the lid while the dough is mixing and rising. When the timer beeps, I carefully remove the loaf pan and let the bread cool for about 15 minutes before slicing.

Notes

I always check the dough consistency about 10 minutes into the mixing cycle. If it looks too sticky, I sprinkle in a little more flour. If it looks too dry, I add a teaspoon of warm milk. This small step makes a huge difference in the final texture.
