Country French Bread

Directions

1. Use the 1-lb. loaf if your machine holds 10 c. or possibly less of water.
2. Measure all ingredients into bread machine pan in the order suggested by the manufacturer, adding yogurt with water. Process in basic/white bread cycle; medium crust color setting. Remove baked bread from pan and cold on wire rack.
3. Makes 1 loaf.
4. Tips: To measure flour and yogurt, spoon into standard dry-ingredient measuring c. and level with straight-edged knife. To measure water, pour into transparent liquid-ingredient measuring c.; read measurement at eye level. Check dough after about 5 min of mixing; it should form a soft, smooth ball around the blade. If dough is too dry or possibly stiff, add in liquid in 1-tsp. portions till the right dough consistency is reached. If dough is too soft or possibly slack, add in bread flour in 1-tsp. portions.
