How to Make Banana Bead For The Bread Machine

1. In a medium bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas with 1/2 cup sour cream or buttermilk until completely smooth and creamy.
2. (Optional) Cover and refrigerate the banana mixture overnight for enhanced flavor.
3. Add the following ingredients to your bread machine pan in the order specified by your machine's manual (this may vary): 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour.
4. Pour the mashed banana mixture over the dry ingredients.
5. Select the "quick bread" or "cake" cycle on your bread machine.
6. If your machine has a crust setting, choose "medium".
7. Press "start".
8. After the first kneading cycle, use a spatula to gently scrape down the sides and bottom of the pan, ensuring all ingredients are incorporated.
9. Once the bread machine signals completion, check doneness by gently pressing the top of the bread; it should spring back slightly. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
10. Carefully remove the bread pan from the machine.
11. Let the bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
12. Once completely cool, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
