This is a hearty breakfast bread that will hold you until lunch. It’s also a great way to use overripe bananas. You’ll love the combination of white flour, whole wheat flour, oats, bananas, and raisins.
This makes a two-pound loaf of bread using the basic setting with medium crust.
Follow the instructions that came with your bread machine in terms of which ingredients to put in the machine first. In my machine, I add the liquids first.
Typically, you’d add the raisins at the add beep. However, I’ve found that the raisins are distributed more evenly throughout the loaf if I add them at the beginning.
Check on the dough after five or ten minutes of kneading. Open the top of the bread machine to see how the dough is doing. It should be a smooth, round ball.
If the dough is too dry add liquid a teaspoon at a time until it looks right. If it looks too wet, add flour a tablespoon at a time until it looks right.
