-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Medium Loaf: -- (1 1/2 lb. bread machine)
3/4 cup banana
1/4 cup water
2 eggs
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 Tbsp packed brown sugar
2 tsp salt
4 cups bread flour
1 Tbsp Active Dry Yeast
1/2 cups dates -- chopped
A rich loaf studded with dates and the full flavor of banana is sure
to become a favorite.
Yield: 1 loaf
Bread Machine: Measure ingredients into bread pan in the order
listed. Select White/Basic cycle. Select loaf size and Medium crust.
Check dough consistency after 5 minutes of kneading. The dough should
be in a soft, tacky ball. If it is dry and stiff, add water, 1/2 to 1
TBSP at a time. If it is too wet and sticky, add 1 TBSP of flour at a
time. Add dates 5 minutes before the end of the last kneading cycle.
When Bake cycle is completed, remove bread from pan; cool on wire rack.
Traditional Method: Add yeast to warm tap water (110F to 115F). Stir
to dissolve. Allow to set until yeast is bubbly and a foam layer
appears. In medium mixing bowl, beat egg(s), bananas, sugar, oil, and
salt. Add the yeast mixture and 1-cup flour; beat 2 minutes. By hand,
stir in dates and enough remaining flour to make firm dough. Knead on
floured surface until smooth and elastic, 5 to 7 minutes; add
additional flour if necessary. Place in greased bowl; turn to grease
top. Cover; let rise in warm place until dough tests "ripe." (Gently
stick two fingers in the risen dough up to the second knuckle and
take them out. If hole indentations remain, the dough is "ripe.")
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; punch down to remove air
bubbles. To form a loaf, roll or pat into a 12- x 9" or 12- x 8"
rectangle. Starting with shorter side, roll up tightly, pressing
dough into roll with each turn. Pinch edges and ends to seal. Place
in lightly greased 9- x 5" or 8 1/2 - x 4 1/2" loaf pan. Cover; let
rise until indentation remains after touching. Bake in preheated 375F
oven: loaf, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from pan; cool.
You can substitute Instant (fast-rising) yeast for Active Dry Yeast.
Traditional methods- replace 1:1. Expect your dough to rise faster;
always let your dough rise until â??ripe'. Bread Machines- use 1/2
tsp Instant yeast (or 3/4 tsp Active Dry yeast) per cup of flour in
your recipe.
