"This recipe originally came from the booklet that accompanied my bread machine. I've modified it a bit and it's my family's favorite bread. We use it for sandwiches, toasted with parmesean cheese for dinner and even just toasted with butter for breakfast!"

Yields:: 2 pound loaf

ingredients

1 ¹⁄₄ cups water
²⁄₃ cup chopped onion
4 -5 garlic cloves, chopped as finely as you prefer (optional)
4 tablespoons butter
4 cups flour
2 tablespoons sugar
4 teaspoons dry milk
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons yeast

directions

Measure and add liquid ingredients to the bread pan.
Measure and add dry ingredients (except yeast) to the bread pan.
Use your finger to form a well (hole) in the flour where you will pour the yeast. Yeast must NEVER come into contact with a liquid when you are adding ingredients. Measure the yeast and carefully pour into the well.
Close up bread machine.
Choose the "basic" setting that most machines have - it's the three hour setting on mine.
I always use the "light" crust color because the bread comes out quite a bit softer.

Fantastic! So easy, light texture and beautiful flavour. The aroma of this bread baking is heavenly. I used the dough cycle on my machine and then baked the bread into 2 loaves in the oven. I used only 2 garlic cloves and I think I'll increase it to 3 next time. I chopped the onions and garlic quite finely in my mini-processor and you would barely know they're in the bread except for the flavour. This will be made often. Thank you, Brieness!

This was a delicious bread. I used vidalia onions and did add the garlic. It made excellent garlic-cheese toast to accompany the spaghetti I served. Thanks for a great recipe, Brieness. Sue

Yummy! This bread smells very "oniony" when baking. The flavor is very mild with just enough to make a nice savory bread. Excellent with soup! Thanks!
