  • 1/2 cup walnuts (chopped)

Instructions

  • Have liquid ingredients at 80°F unless otherwise specified in your manual; all others at room temperature.
  • Add ingredients in order recommended by bread machine manufacturer. Select Basic Cycle or White Bread Cycle, and medium/normal crust. Add walnut pieces 5 minutes before the end of the last kneading cycle. Check dough consistency after 5 minutes of kneading. The dough should be in a soft, tacky ball.

  • When cycle is complete, carefully remove bread from pan; let cool on wire rack before slicing.
