Description

This is such an easy, delicious yeast bread that there are no excuses not to make it! It is very easy to make this recipe vegan-friendly by substituting agave nectar for honey and Earth Balance margarine for butter. A whole wheat version is also an option; just replace 1 cup all-purpose flour with 1 cup whole wheat flour. Makes 1 loaf.

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons Active Dry Yeast
  • 1-¼ cup Warm Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey Or Agave Nectar
  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 cup Rolled Oats
  • 1-½ teaspoon Salt
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter, Melted (or Margarine)

Preparation

1. In a medium bowl, sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and stir until it dissolves. Add the honey (or agave nectar, if you prefer a vegan version), stir, and set aside for a few minutes.
2. Meanwhile, mix flour, oats, and salt in a large bowl. Mix the wet mixture into the dry and stir until completely combined.
3. Brush a loaf pan generously with the melted butter (or Earth Balance margarine) before transferring the dough into the pan. Cover with a slightly damp towel and set in a warm place for 30 minutes.
4. Preheat the oven to 350ºF with a rack in the middle. Once the bread has risen, bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until golden and pulling away from the sides.
5. Turn on the broiler for 20-30 seconds and watch closely, removing the bread once the top reaches a slightly darker cooler. Turn the bread out of the pan almost immediately, allowing to cool on a wire rack. Serve warm with butter.

I made this bread this morning. It made my house smell wonderful. It is very good and easy. I found it to be a tiny bit salty and dense. I let it rise longer than you said and I wish I had let it rise even longer than that. I love the texture and warm with a little butter and honey is wonderful. Thanks!
