Hawaiian Bread

This bread is made using a bread machine, hopefully you have a bread machine to try out this semi-sweet tasting recipe. I have noticed after making this several times that you need to use very ripe bananas, if they are green or yellow with no brown spots the bread doesn't turn out as good. Trust me you really only want to make this with overly ripe bananas.

Recipe:

½ cup mashed banana
½ cup crushed pineapple, with juice
1 egg
¼ cup milk
¼ cup margarine, softened
1 teaspoon coconut extract
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup white sugar
½ cup instant potato flakes
3 cups bread flour
1½ teaspoons active dry yeast

1) Place all wet ingredients into the pan first, then add all of the dry ingredients. Make a well in the center of the flour and add the yeast.
2) Select 1½ pound loaf, light setting; press Start.

Notes: Best if over ripe bananas are used. Place ingredients in the pan of the bread machine in order recommended by the manufacturer.
