Oatmeal, Fruit and Nut Bread image

This is a tasty bread with very little fat-virtually none if you use the nonfat buttermilk and leave out the nuts. I've only made it with raisins, but I'll bet it would be really good with the dried cranberries also.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Use organic oats and walnuts if possible.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Be careful not to over-knead the dough. Over-kneading can make the bread tough.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1-2 hours.
  • Bake the bread in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
  • Let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

This oat and walnut buttermilk braid is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced baker, this bread is sure to be a hit.
