How to Make Banana Blueberry Bread Machine Bread

  1. Add all ingredients to your bread machine in the order recommended by your machine's manufacturer.
  2. Select the 'dough' or equivalent setting and allow the machine to mix and knead the dough.
  3. Once the dough cycle is complete, select the 'bake' setting. Bake for approximately 3 hours (adjust based on your bread machine's instructions and desired browning).
  4. Remove the bread from the machine once the bake cycle is complete. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
