FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T GIVEN UP ON THEIR BREAD MACHINES

I have two favorite bread recipes, and this is my newest one.  I like it because it is SO easy if you have a bread machine.  It turns out every time!

CRUSTY BREAD

3 cups flour (I use 2 cups white/1 cup wheat)
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/8 c. warm water
1 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 1/2 tsp. yeast

Mix on bread dough cycle in machine. Put in greased bread pan and let rise.  Bake at 375* for 25-30 min.  Can put pan of hot water in bottom of oven while baking.  To make a nice crusty bread, bake in afternoon and pop back into oven for 5 min before meal.  Serve with butter and honey!
