Here is the recipe for the bread that I make for my hubby's sandwiches that he takes to work. I created this recipe while fooling around trying to make a healthier version of the bread that I used to make by adding some oatmeal and a bit of oil to my old bread recipe. My hubby loves this bread and so do it!
Whole Wheat Oatmeal Bread
2 cups unbleached flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup quick oats
2 tablespoons dry yeast
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons oil
2 cups very warm water
Mix dry ingredients . Add wet ingredients. Mix all together. If the dough is sticky, you may have to add a bit more flour. Knead for 3 minutes in the mixer or by hand for about 6 minutes. Divide into 2 loaves and let rise in greased loaf pans. Bake at 400 degrees F for 25 minutes.
Nice to see your post. Do you ever use a bread machine? Just curious.
ReplyDeleteI got through Christmas without any crashes -yea! The weather has kept me at home for the most part. The dog has adjusted to mostly spending the time at home with no real complaints. Cheers, SJ
Hi SJ, yes I do use a bread machine for some of my other breads that I make. I have not tried this recipe in it though. I'm so glad you got through Christmas without any crashes...that is wonderful! I'm spending more time at home too and my poor dog is not happy that his walks around the neighborhood have dwindled down to about 1 a week now when my husband braves the weather, ice and snow and takes pity on him. ;)
DeleteThanks so much. I will be trying this soon.
ReplyDeleteHave a good one
You are very welcome Cheryl! I hope you like it as much as we do!
DeleteSounds good! I have a big bread machine and it could handle mixing this much but I would prefer to bake it the old fashioned way and in 2 pans like you do.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recipe,
You are welcome Rhonda. I still do some other breads in our bread machine as well. :)
DeleteOne of my goals is to get more in baking bread this year, and this looks like a yummy recipe to try! I really like oatmeal bread too 😁
ReplyDeleteHI Jessica, this is a really easy (and forgiving) bread to make. :) I hope you try it!
DeleteDebbie - thanks for this recipe. I'm going to try it soon.
