Hi all, I made this last night. It was one of the few times I've made bread from scratch, and the first time I've made bread completely alone, but it turned out perfectly. The bread is soft and a touch sweet thanks to the honey, and is just a really good bread for just about any purpose (sandwiches, toast, whatever).
Honey Oat Bread. Yield: 2 loaves Ingredients 2 & 1/3 cups warm water (105-110 degrees) 4 teaspoons yeast 1 cup quick-cooking oats 1/2 cup honey 1/4 cup canola oil 1 tablespoon salt 1 cup whole-wheat flour 1 tablespoon raw bran at least 5 cups bread flour Instructions Combine water and yeast. Let stand about 5 minutes. Add oats, honey, salt, oil, whole-wheat flour, and bran; mix well. Add enough bread flour to make a soft dough, then knead 5-10 minutes. Let rise 45-60 minutes or until doubled in size. Punch down, form into two large loaves, then let loaves double again. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes. Turn onto cooling rack; let loaves rest on their sides. -- Have a great day, Alex Hall [email protected] _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
