Add the ingredients in the order given by your bread machine’s instructions. This will usually be wet ingredients, then dry ingredients with the yeast in a small central well in the flour.
6 tablespoons warm water, ¾ cup buttermilk, ¼ cup honey, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 large egg, 3 cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup old-fashioned oats, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 ¼ teaspoons bread machine yeast
Press the basic cycle and adjust the crust color to the lightest setting. If you don’t have a basic setting, you can use the white bread setting. This recipe will make a 1.5 pound loaf.
Once the bread has finished baking, let it cool before cutting and serving.

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.
