banana berries bread

It was one of those "gone bananas" weekend where we had an entire uneaten bunch of bananas that were overripe. As such, I ended up using the bananas to make the following:-

(a) banana and raisin ice cream

(b) banana cookies

(c) banana cake

(d) banana berries bread

A perfect way to use up all the overripe bananas!

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup mixed berries yoghurt
1/2 cup water
1 tbsp castor sugar
1 tbsp milk powder
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp butter (softened)
2 1/4 cups bread flour
2 tsp instant dry yeast

METHOD

1. Place all the ingredients (except the bread flour and yeast) in the bucket of the breadmaker machine.

2. Add the bread flour, making sure that the wet ingredients are totally covered.

3. Add the yeast.

4. Place the bucket in the breadmaker machine and set to "dough" cycle. Start the cycle.

5. When the cycle has been completed, turn the dough onto a floured board. Using floured hands, knead the dough 5 times.

6. Place the dough in a loaf pan that has been greased and lined with baking paper.

7. Cover the loaf pan with a damp cloth and leave for 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.

8. Bake in an oven preheated to 180 degrees celsius for 30 minutes.
