Machine Settings to Use - Light Color, 2 lb and Basic Bread Setting

Soften the butter in your microwave. FYI - I like to semi-melt the butter.

Premix the Greek yogurt (or sour cream). FYI - This helps you to better measure the Greek yogurt (or sour cream) in a measuring cup and helps evenly distribute any fruit if you use a fruit-flavored Greek yogurt.

Unplug your bread machine.

Remove the bread pan from the unplugged bread machine (so when you add the ingredients, they can not accidentally spill into the machine).

Add the Greek yogurt (or sour cream), milk and butter into the bread pan and then add the remaining ingredients. Place the bread machine yeast in last and the yeast should not touch the liquid (until the bread machine is turned on and the ingredients start to be mixed together by the bread machine).

Put bread pan with ingredients back into unplugged bread machine.

Plug in bread machine. Enter the correct settings (Light Color, 2 lb and Basic Bread Setting) and press the "Start" button.

When the bread machine has finished baking the bread, unplug the bread machine and remove the bread pan from the bread machine. Wear oven mitts as the bread pan & bread machine will be hot.

Remove the bread from the bread pan and place the bread on a cooling rack. Use oven mitts when removing the bread as the bread & bread pan will be hot.

Optional - Right after you remove the hot bread from the bread pan and place it on the cooling rack, you can use a pastry brush to brush a very light coat of melted butter on the top of the bread. This creates a more golden crust and adds even more buttery flavor. This works best when the bread is still hot. FYI - Do not use too much melted butter or it will run all over the sides of the bread. Also do not brush on after the bread has cooled down.

Let the bread cool on the cooling rack for 1-2 hours before cutting.
