Honey-Oatmeal Sandwich Bread
This oatmeal bread will bring life to your sandwiches
Ingredients
- 1¼ cups water 10 ounces, boiling
- 1 cup rolled oats 3½ ounces, old-fashioned
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 ounce, cut into 3 pieces
- 1½ teaspoons salt
- ¼ cup honey (3 ounces )
- 1 cup whole wheat flour (4 ounces )
- 1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour 7 ounces
- ¼ cup nonfat dry milk (1 ounce )
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast
Instructions
- 1. Place the boiling water, oats, butter, salt and honey into a medium bowl, stir, and let the mixture cool to lukewarm.
- 2. Mix the remaining dough ingredients with the oat mixture, and knead - by hand, mixer or bread machine - until you've made a soft, smooth dough. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise for 1 hour; the dough should be doubled in bulk.
- 3. Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Gently deflate the dough - it'll be sticky, so oil your hands - and shape it into a 9-inch log. Place it in the prepared pan. Cover it gently with lightly greased plastic wrap, and allow it to rise until it has crowned 1½ inches over the rim of the pan, about 1 to 1½ hours. Near the end of the bread's rising time, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- 4. Uncover and bake the bread for about 45 minutes, tenting it with foil after 20 minutes to prevent over-browning. The bread is done when it's golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 190 degrees F. Remove it from the oven, and after a minute or so turn it out onto a rack. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with additional oats. Cool the bread completely before cutting it.
