Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats and buttermilk. Let this mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the oats to soften.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Add the melted butter, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract to the oat and buttermilk mixture. Stir until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixtures together using a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the raisins evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
