Here's my favorite bread machine recipe...

First, they lie.

All the bread machine advice says to be careful and put the yeast in last in a little hole on top of the dry stuff so it doesn't touch stuff.

Wrong.

Get a cup of warm water, 2.25 teaspoons yeast and 2 tablespoons sugar and let the yeast react for 10 minutes in your bread maker.

Add:

1/4 cup oil

3 cups flour (or 2.5 cups flour and .5 cups pancake mix)

1.5 teaspoons salt

The key is really letting the yeast work for 10 minutes first and not follow the common advice of putting it on top of the dry stuff.
