Best Bread Machine Recipe Ever

It is easy.
It has 7 ingredients.
It is delish.

Take bread machine bowl with paddle inserted. Fill it with following ingredients.
-1 cup warm water (110 degrees F)
-1.5 Tablespoons white sugar
-1 Tablespoon Honey
-1 package bread machine yeast or regular yeast (if you have the jar it is 2-1/4 tsp equal a package)
-1/4 cup softened butter
-1 teaspoon salt
-3 cups flour(sifted or not doesn't seem to matter)

Return bread machine bowl to bread machine.
Close lid.
My settings are: Basic or White Bread, 1.5lb, crust color light

In 3 hours and 18 minutes I have a perfect loaf of bread. It is delectable!

I also use this recipe for rolls. Only small difference are My settings: DOUGH. Remove after timer goes (mine is finished in about 1 hour and 38 mins).
Dump dough on lightly floured cutting board.
Use either pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut small stripes and then section it again.
Immediately place cut portions onto ungreased cookie sheet or glass pan.
 Bake at 350 degrees for 15-18 mins. yields 12 rolls.

Only other variation I've tried to original recipe on setting: RAPID BAKE.
In 1 hour 18 mins, I have a smaller more dense loaf. It is still delicious, just doesn't rise like the original.
My 5 yr old prefers this loaf.

Happy Bread Baking!
