Easy Homemade Oatmeal Bread made with rolled oats, whole wheat flour and sweetened with honey.

Provided by Lauren Allen

Categories     Appetizer     Breakfast     side course

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups milk (, brought to a simmer)
1 cup rolled oats ((not quick or instant oats))
4 tablespoons butter (, softened)
1/2 cup honey
4 ½ teaspoons instant yeast
1/2 cup warm water
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 1/4 -3 cups all-purpose flour
egg wash: 1 egg mixed with 1 tablespoon of water

Steps:

  • Add oats and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer or large mixing bowl. Heat milk to a simmer and pour on top, stirring to combine. Set aside for about 1.5 hours. Mixture should be at room temperature.
  • Add honey, warm water, instant yeast, and salt to the bowl and stir well to combine. Add the whole wheat flour and mix on medium-low speed until combined. Add the all-purpose flour, a little at a time, until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. Only add enough flour to make a dough that is soft, and not overly sticky (don't add too much flour!). Knead for a few minutes until smooth and elastic and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
  • First Rise: Transfer dough to a greased bowl and cover with a dish towel or plastic wrap. Allow to rise until double in size, about 1 hour.
  • Punch down the dough and divide into two equal pieces. Shape into loaves and place in two lightly greased loaf pans. Make egg wash and gently brush some over the top of each loaf. Sprinkle a small handful of dry oats on top.
  • Second rise: Cover with a well greased piece of plastic wrap gently laid on top and let rise in a warm place until risen about 1 inch over the loaf pans, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Carefully peel off the plastic wrap.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 30 - 40 minutes. Loaves are done when tapping lightly on the tops produces hollow sound (or when instant read thermometer registers 200° F). Cool for 15 minutes on wire rack, then turn out of pans and cool completely.

This is a fine textured bread if the oatmeal is allowed to soak for the full hour.

Provided by Leslie Vaughn

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes

Time 3h50m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups boiling water
1 cup rolled oats
½ cup honey
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons salt
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
½ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
4 cups bread flour
2 tablespoons honey, warmed slightly
2 tablespoons rolled oats

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine boiling water, oats, 1/2 cup honey, butter and salt. Let stand for 1 hour.
  • In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour the yeast mixture into the oat mixture. Add 2 cups of flour; mix well. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 20 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into loaves. Place the loaves into two lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Cover the loaves with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Remove loaves from pans, brush tops of loaves with 2 tablespoons honey and sprinkle with oats.

Tips:

  • Choose the right oats. Rolled oats or old-fashioned oats are the best choice for oatmeal bread, as they will provide a chewy texture and nutty flavor. Avoid quick-cooking oats, as they will make the bread too soft and mushy.
  • Soak the oats before using them. Soaking the oats overnight in water or milk will help to soften them and make them more digestible. This will also help to improve the texture and flavor of the bread.
  • Use a combination of flours. Using a combination of all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour will give the bread a heartier flavor and texture. You can also add other flours, such as rye flour or cornmeal, to create a unique flavor profile.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the bread tough and dense. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined and then stop.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place. The dough should rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size. This will help to develop the flavor and texture of the bread.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature. The bread should be baked at a high temperature for about 30 minutes, or until it is golden brown and crusty. This will help to create a crispy crust and a chewy interior.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal bread is a delicious and nutritious bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a good source of fiber, protein, and vitamins, and it can be made with a variety of ingredients to suit your taste. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make a delicious loaf of oatmeal bread at home.
