Peel and mash the ripe bananas in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
Add ingredients to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer's instructions. Typically, liquids go first: start with mashed bananas, honey, melted butter, and milk.
Next, add the dry ingredients: whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients, ensuring it does not touch the liquids below, and add the active dry yeast.
Secure the bread pan in the bread machine and close the lid.
Select the 'Whole Wheat Bread' setting on your bread machine, set the crust to your desired level (light, medium, or dark), and press start.
Once the baking cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before turning the bread out onto a wire rack.
Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
