Tips:

To achieve the best results, make sure to use active dry yeast. If you're using instant yeast, you can skip the step of proofing the yeast.
When measuring the milk, make sure it's lukewarm, not hot. Hot milk can kill the yeast and prevent the bread from rising properly.
If you're using a bread machine, follow the manufacturer's instructions for adding the ingredients and setting the program.
To check if the bread is done baking, insert a toothpick or skewer into the center of the loaf. If it comes out clean, the bread is done. If there's batter or dough on the toothpick or skewer, continue baking for a few more minutes.
Let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
