Soft Brown Loaf

This is a very simple recipe for making a soft brown loaf of bread using a breadmaker. My daughter dislikes crusty bread so I usually have to cut the crusts off when I make her sandwiches - this loaf is soft enough for her to be happy with them left on. I use a the 5 hour "Sandwich" setting of my Panasonic breadmaker - check for a similar setting in your machine instructions if you have a different make.
