3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
1/3 cup caramel ice cream topping
2 tablespoons margarine or butter, softened
3 cups bread flour
2 tablespoons dry milk powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
2 1/2 teaspoons bread machine or quick active dry yeast
2/3 cup dried banana

Make 1 ½ Pound Recipe with bread machines that use 3 cups flour, or make 2 Pound Recipe with bread machines that use 4 cups flour.

Measure carefully, placing all ingredients except banana chips in bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Add banana chips at the Raisin/Nut signal.

Select Sweet or Basic/White cycle. Use Light crust color. Do not use delay cycles. Remove baked bread from pan, and cool on wire rack.

SUCCESS TIP
If your bread machine doesn't have a Raisin/Nut signal, add the banana chips 5 to 10 minutes before the last kneading cycle ends. Check your bread machine's use-and-care book to find out how long the last cycle runs.

SUCCESS TIP
We found from our testing that the same amount of yeast is needed for both the 1 1/2-pound and 2-pound loaves.

SUCCESS TIP
Use the light crust setting so that the crust won't become too dark brown from the sugar in the caramel tipping and dried bananas.

SANDWICH BOARD
Want to give the kids a special treat? Make their next peanut butter and jelly sandwich with this yummy banana-flavored bread. Or use only peanut butter and cook it just like a grilled cheese sandwich.
