Honey Oat Bread

1. 1

   Sprinkle the yeast over the water and let set for 10 minutes until frothy. In a large bowl, mix together 3/4 cup oats, honey, oil and salt, and the yeast-water mixture. Stir in enough of the flour to form a soft dough. Coat a large bowl with non-stick spray. Transfer dough the bowl and turn it over to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and then a kitchen towel. Let rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled in volume.

2. 2

   Punch the dough down and shape into 2 loaves. I just free-formed 2 loaves on a baking sheet. But you can use loaf pans if you want (this is actually what the recipe calls for). Cover and let rise for 20 minutes.

3. 3

   Brush the top of the loaves with beaten egg, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup oats. Bake at 350u00b0F for 35-40 minutes. When you knock on the bottom of the bread and it sounds hollow, it is done.

4. 4

   Top with butter or honey for a delicious side to any meal!
