Bread Maker Banana Oat Bread

Submitted by Joodie

"I derived this recipe from another one on this site. I was missing some of the ingredients, so made some substitutions. I don't like to dirty too many things in my kitchen (mixer, bowl, and loaf pan), so I tried it out in my bread maker- worked out fine."

 

• Ready In: 1hr 8mins
• Ingredients: 14
• Yields: 1 loaf
• Serves: 12

ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1⁄2 cup bread flour
• 1 cup quick oats (the recipe recommends a cup, which worked well for me)
• 4 tablespoons honey
• 6 tablespoons white sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 2 large bananas or 3 medium bananas, well mashed
• 1⁄4 cup ground flax seed meal
• 1⁄2 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 2 large eggs
• 1⁄2 cup sliced almonds

directions

1. In bread maker, combine eggs (slightly beaten), honey, mashed bananas, applesauce, and flax meal.
2. You can do this in a separate bowl. I did in my food processor because I didn't have quick oats. Pulse 4 or 5 times. Blend together oats, flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add to wet ingredients in bread maker.
3. Set to quick bread. Add almonds when you see that the dough is well incorporated.
