Instructions

  1. Mix milk and honey, then dissolve yeast in the mixture. Let sit until yeast begins to foam (a few minutes).
  2. Combine yeast mixture with remaining ingredients, mix to combine, then knead (by hand on a floured surface or in a mixer) until dough "pushes back" as you knead. Add additional flour as needed so that dough is not too sticky.
  3. Place dough in a bowl, cover with a damp dish towel and let sit in a warm place until doubled, about an hour.
  4. When dough has doubled, punch it down, then form into a loaf and place in a bread pan sprayed with non-stick spray. Let rise again until about 50% increased and starting to rise above pan.
  5. Brush top of bread with egg wash and sprinkle with oatmeal.
  6. Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes, until loaaf sounds hollow when taapped. Keep an eye on the bread and be prepared to cover if the top gets too dark (likely).
