Here's my wife's adaptation:

English Muffin Loaf

Ingredients:

1 package dry yeast (1.5 tsp)
1/2 cup nonfat dry milk
2 tsp salt
4 cups bread flour
2 cups hot water (120-130 deg F)
1/2 tsp baking soda dissolved in 1 tbs warm water

Put the hot water, salt, and baking soda mixture into the bread machine.
Add the flour. Make a small well in the center of the flour, and place
the yeast in that well.

Set the machine for a standard loaf, with one rise, and let 'er go.

When finished, remove the pan from the machine, remove the loaf, and
allow it to cool thoroughly on a rack before cutting.

Adapted from the manual, standard oven recipe in Bernard Clayton's "New
Complete Book of Breads (revised and expanded)".
