Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 0.5 cup Milk (room temperature)
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.33 cup Packed brown sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5 minutes to activate the yeast until it becomes foamy.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk, rolled oats, butter, brown sugar, and salt. Heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and let cool until lukewarm.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast mixture and the cooled oat mixture. Stir well to combine.
Add the all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour gradually, mixing until the dough begins to come together and pull away from the sides of the bowl.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. Add a little more flour if the dough is sticky, but avoid adding too much.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning it once to coat. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Shape the dough into a loaf and place it into the prepared loaf pan.
Cover the loaf lightly with a kitchen towel and let it rise again in a warm place for 30-40 minutes, or until the dough has risen just above the edge of the pan.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and toast as desired. Enjoy your Oatmeal and Brown Sugar Toasting Bread!
