SWEET MOLASSES OATMEAL BREAD
Very good sweet bread. Perfect bread for around Christmas time or any time of the year. Makes good toast and would also be nice as french toast. Sometimes we use half whole wheat and half white that also makes it good, but suit yourself. This is a recipe from a friend.

Tips for Making Sweet Molasses Oatmeal Bread
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor and texture of your bread.
- Measure your ingredients accurately. This is especially important for the yeast, sugar, and salt. If you don't measure correctly, your bread may not rise properly or may be too salty or sweet.
- Proof the yeast before using it. This will ensure that the yeast is active and will help your bread rise properly.
- Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help develop the gluten in the flour and will make your bread more chewy.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will give the yeast time to work and will help your bread achieve its full flavor and texture.
- Bake the bread in a preheated oven. This will help the bread rise evenly and will prevent it from becoming dry.
