Banana Oatmeal Bread
adapted from Bread Machine Baking, Perfect Every Time by Brody & Apter

for small Panasonic/National (1 lb)

1/4 c steel cut oats, soaked in 1/4 c boiling water until mixture
	is at room temparature
1 tsp salt
3 tbsp powdered buttermilk
3/4 c rolled oats 
1 1/2c whole wheat flour 
2 Tbsp vital wheat gluten
2 Tbsp brown sugar
3 Tbsp water 
1 1/2 tsp EnerG beaten with 2 TBSP water (or I guess other 1 egg equivalent)
3/4 c mashed very ripe bananas
2 tsp yeast

Place all ingredients except yeast in machine. Place yeast in
dispenser.  Program for whole wheat and press Start (work ok with
Basic bread too).

I've added all different kinds of dried fruit (apricots, dried
cherries, raisin s) to this and that comes out great.  Add 1/2 cup of
chopped fruit whenever you normally add raisins (if you have a raisin
bread cycle then at the beep. That's my only complaint with the
Panasonic--I think I did it last time around 2:40 left in the whole
wheat cycle, and it came out ok, for those of you that also have the
Panasonic).
