2. Follow instructions for your bread machine, mine says to put all liquids in first then add dry ingredient's.
3. Place warm water in the bottom along with the molasses. then add flours, salt in one corner and butter in the other, brown sugar in the other. I sprinkle my Swedish mix and milk in the center before making my dwell for my yeast.
4. Set bread machine to your desired settings, and let the machine do its job and you will have a perfect loaf of bread :)
