Ingredients:
- 2 ripe bananas
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp nonfat dry milk
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 2 cups whole wheat bread four
- 2 cups bread flour
- 1 1/2 tbsp gluten
- 2 1/4 tsp yeast
- 1 cup shelled walnuts
Method:
- Peel the bananas and mash them into somewhat smooth puree
- To the bread maker pan, add meshed bananas, water, butter, salt, dry milk and sugar
- Then add the flours, gluten and yeast
- Set the bread maker on 2-lb loaf and medium-dark crust setting and start the bread making cycle (start to complete about 3 hours)
- When the first kneading cycle is complete add the shelled walnuts
- In about 3 hours, the bread loaf is ready! Open the lid and let it cool for 2-3 minutes before you take the loaf out of the pan.
Note:
If your loaf bakes too dense, next time add 1-2 tbsp additional water. Water will help the loaf rise and gluten will provide support so that the loaf does not collapse / crater during the baking cycle.
