This bread has a wonderful texture and taste to it. Some of my family are very fussy about the bread they eat but I have never had a complaint about the Rolled Oat Bread.

Rolled Oat Bread Ingredients

2 tsp sea salt
1 cup rolled oats
2 Tbs sesame oil
3 cups spring water
3/4 tsp active dry yeast
6 cups of flour regular or bread flour

Rolled Oat Bread Method

Boil 2 cups of water and pour it over the oats in a large bowl. Add the salt and the oil and set aside until lukewarm. Heat 1/4 cup of the water to lukewarm then add the yeast and a teaspoon of flour and set in a warm spot to proof 15 minutes. Add the remaining 3/4 cup of water and about a cup of flour and stir well and set covered in a draft free spot for about an hour. Stir this mixture into the cooled oat mixture.

Gradually stir in enough of the flour to form a dough. Turn dough out and knead until smooth and elastic adding flour if necessary to keep the dough from sticking. Form the dough into a ball and put it in a lightly greased bowl. Cover and set aside somewhere warm for about 2 hours. Knead the dough and return to the bowl for a second rise. Shape the dough and place in two loaf pans.

Take a fork and stab the loaf repeatedly and evenly from one end to the other to let out potential air bubbles. Let rise for an hour or until the dough is just risen up round over the sides of the pan. Bake the Rolled Oat Bread at 350 degrees for 50 minutes until the loaves are lightly brown and have firm sides and sound hollow when tapped. Cool thoroughly before storing. A little olive oil applied to the top of the loaf keeps the top crust soft.
