Note
For a softer crumb, you can use all milk instead of half milk and half water.
Ensure the liquid is not too hot, as this can kill the yeast. It should feel warm to the touch, not hot.
Store the cooled bread in a plastic bag or airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, slice and freeze for up to 3 months.
You can add 1/2 cup of raisins or dried cranberries to the dough for a sweet variation.
