EGG BREAD MAGIC
I got this recipe from my mother in law. I've been looking for a light white bread that's soft and fluff, but still firm enough to make a sandwich with. This recipe is perfect for that. Put a little butter or jam on a slice of this while it's still warm and you'll never use a different bread recipe again! Makes a 1.5 pound loaf

Steps:
- Place all ingredients into bread machine in order as recommended by the manufacturer.
- Bake on the basic bread setting.
- Note: I usually pour the sugar and salt in with the liquids and slosh them around to dissolve a little bit before adding the flour.
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients for best results. - Make sure your eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them emulsify better with the other ingredients. - Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough loaf of bread. - Use a loaf pan that is greased and floured. This will help the bread rise evenly and prevent it from sticking. - Bake the bread in a preheated oven.

This will help the bread set and prevent it from crumbling.Conclusion:
