How to Make Light Wheat Bread With Honey

Combine all ingredients in your bread machine according to the manufacturer's instructions for the dough cycle.
Once the dough cycle is complete, gently remove the dough from the bread machine and shape it into a round or oval loaf.
Place the shaped dough in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
Let the dough rise in a warm place for approximately 60-75 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
