Best Ever Sourdough Oatmeal Bread image

Just as oatmeal bread is a good way to start moving to whole grain bread, oatmeal sourdough is a good way to introduce sourdough bread. It's a bit lighter than many sourdoughs, with a softer texture.

Categories     Bread

Time 50m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups active sourdough starter
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1½ cups rolled oats (either old-fashioned or quick)
2 Tbsp olive oil
1½ tsp salt
3 Tbsp honey
1 - 1¼ cups lukewarm milk

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients in a large bowl or your stand mixer bowl.
  • Combine until a loose dough forms. Cover and let sit 30 minutes.
  • Knead dough 5 - 10 minutes or until dough is smooth. The dough will still be quite wet. That's ok if you are using a stand mixer. If you are kneading by hand you my need to add a little more flour to keep the dough from sticking. Just add as little as possible as we want to keep this a soft dough.
  • Place dough in a greased bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place, about 2 hours.
  • Shape dough and place in a large greased loaf pan. Cover and let rise for an additional 1 - 1½ hours.
  • If you are using a regular metal or glass loaf pan bake at 375 degrees for 50 - 55 minutes or until the interior reaches 200 degrees (I use my trusty digital thermometer for this). If you are using an unglazed terra cotta pan (like I do, shown above) follow the directions that come with the pan. For example, I soak the pan in water for 15 minutes and then place the bread in a cold oven, set the temperature to 475 and bake for about 50 minutes.
  • When done, remove from pan and let cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting. This is important to let the crumb set so you will get nice even slices.
