Step-by-Step Instructions for Sour Cream Chive Bread
- Gather all your ingredients and ensure they’re at room temperature, ideally between 70°F and 80°F.
- In your bread machine pan, combine the ingredients in the following order: first, pour in the wet ingredients—milk, water, sour cream, and melted butter. Next, add the sugar, salt, flour, baking soda, chives, and lastly, sprinkle the active dry yeast on top.
- Close the lid of your bread machine and select the basic bread setting. Choose your preferred crust color and loaf size if available.
- After about 5 minutes of mixing, check the dough’s consistency. It should feel slightly sticky but not overly wet. Adjust the texture by adding a tablespoon of water or milk at a time if too dry.
- Allow the bread machine to complete its baking cycle, which typically takes around 2 to 3 hours. Once finished, let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.

Notes
Ensure all wet ingredients are at room temperature for better yeast activation. Check the consistency of the dough and adjust if needed to ensure a perfect rise.
