Ingredient notes and substitutions
- Buttermilk: If you don’t have buttermilk, you can make an easy homemade buttermilk substitute with this recipe.
- Honey: Honey adds moisture and flavor.
- Oil: I like to use olive oil in this recipe, but any neutral oil should work.
- Flour: I either weigh the flour or sift, lightly spoon, and level without packing. Using too much flour will give you a dense, heavy loaf of bread.

Recipe Tips!
- Bread machine model: I have four different bread machines that I use to test my recipes. I have an older Cuisinart as well as the newer Cuisinart model. I also have the KBS, and a Hamilton Beach.
- Freezing: You can freeze the baked and cooled loaf by letting the loaf cool to room temperature, wrapping tightly in plastic wrap, and placing in a freezer-safe container for up to 1 month.
