Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups warm water 105–115F
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 2 ½ - 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • 2 tablespoons neutral oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, stir the water, honey, and yeast together.
  2. Let mixture sit for 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
  3. Add 1 ½ cups of flour, oats, oil, and salt.
  4. Knead on low, continuing to add flour ¼ cup at a time until it forms a soft, smooth dough that clears the sides of the bowl.
  5. Once it forms the dough, continue to knead for 5 minutes on low.
  6. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
  7. Form the dough into a tight ball and place in a cast iron skillet. I use a 12-inch skillet.
  8. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
  9. Toward the end of the second rising time, set your oven rack to the lower middle position and preheat oven to 400F.
  10. Just before you place the bread in the oven cut two slits width-wise and one lengthwise.
  11. Bake for 15-25 minutes. The bread will brown quickly toward the end of the baking time, so keep an eye on it.

Notes

  • Water: If you don’t have a thermometer, feel the water. It should feel a little warmer than bath water but shouldn’t feel uncomfortably warm. If it’s too hot for you, it will be too hot and could kill the yeast.

  • Flour: Bread flour will also work in this recipe. You may find that you need to adjust the amount of flour, and that’s ok! Just go by feel to avoid adding too much flour. Nutrition values are estimates.
