A subtle banana flavor comes through in this moist whole wheat loaf sent in by Louise Myers of Pomeroy, Ohio. Flecked with poppy seeds, the sweet slices are wonderful warm or toasted and spread with butter.

Fantastic! I haven't used my machine in a while, this was a

great reintroduction to it. I didn't have bread flour so used regular flour and white whole wheat. Light, crispy crust,

big loaf. Not sweet due to the banana at all.

This recipe turns out a good, lighter loaf. I was unsure about the banana but the flavor is very subtle and would go unnoticed if one wasn't told.
