Instructions
- Mix milk and honey, then dissolve yeast in the mixture. Let sit until yeast begins to foam (a few minutes).
- 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.
- Place dough in a bowl, cover with a damp dish towel and let sit in a warm place until doubled, about an hour.
- 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.
- Brush top of bread with egg wash and sprinkle with oatmeal.
- 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).
