• Pour the yeast mixture into the oat mixture. Add 2 cups of flour; mix well. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 20 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into loaves. Place the loaves into two lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Cover the loaves with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.

HOMEMADE HONEY OAT BREAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, or the bowl of a standing mixer, combine the flour, oats, yeast, and salt.
• In a small bowl, or two cup (450 ml) measuring cup, warm the milk so that it's hot enough to melt the butter, but not boiling. Add the butter, stirring until melted, then stir in the water and honey.
• Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture, mixing with a dough hook until it just comes together to form a dough. Knead in the mixer, with the dough hook attachment, for 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic (if you're making this recipe by hand, the dough will be very sticky at first; flour your hands and work surface generously and be patient). If the dough is still very wet and sticky after 5 minutes of kneading, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough is barely tacky. If the dough is too dry, add water, 1 teaspoon (5 ml) at a time, to soften it up.
• Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and allow to rise until doubled, about 1/2 to 1 hour.
• Once doubled, place the dough on a clean, dry work surface. If the dough is too sticky, lightly flour the surface before continuing. With your fingers, flatten the dough into a 9 by 12-inch rectangle. Tightly roll the dough, tucking the ends as needed, into a loaf. Place the shaped dough into a 9×5-inch loaf pan, cover with a clean dry towl, and allow to rise until doubled, about 1/2 to 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees (180 C). Place an empty loaf pan on the bottom rack of the oven and bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
• When the loaf is doubled again, brush the top with the warmed honey and sprinkle with the oats.
• Place the bread in the oven and pour the boiling water into the empty loaf pan on the bottom rack of the oven. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until the bread is deep golden brown and the internal temperature is about 190 degrees.
• Transfer to a wire cooling rack and allow to cool completely before serving.

BUTTERMILK OAT BREAD

Steps:

• Stir yeast into warm water, set aside to bubble up.
• Lightly grease a large bowl (for rising), set aside. Lightly grease a loaf pan (preferably pale aluminum), set aside.
• Boil a kettle of water (for rising), then keep on simmer.
• Blend/grind half of the rolled oats into a fine oat flour (easy in a Nutri-Bullet.) Reserve the balance intact.
• Warm the buttermilk and melt the butter, then combine with salt, sugar, honey and the unground oats. (See OPTIONAL below. you may want to reserve 1 rounded Tbsp of rolled oats for the loaf's crust.).
• Add yeast, ground oats and flour; knead until smooth. (For me, that's about 8 minutes with the Kitchen Aid, or 12 minutes by hand.).
• Place dough in greased bowl to rise. Set (uncovered) in closed oven with an open kettle of boiled water. Don't turn on oven. Leave to rise for 1 hour.
• After the hour, reboil kettle of water.
• Form a loaf, place in greased pan. Again, set to rise (uncovered) in closed oven with an open kettle of boiled water. Don't turn on oven. Leave to rise for 1 to 1-1/2 hours.
• Remove dough and kettle from oven. Preheat oven to 350°.
• Bake in preheated oven for approximately 55 minutes total (+/- 5 min), lightly tenting with aluminum foil after 30-40 minutes to keep top from over-browning. The bread is done when its top is golden-brown and its center temperature is 190°.
• OPTIONAL: Just before baking, brush the top of the loaves with an egg white beaten with 1 Tbsp cold water. Sprinkle with 1 rounded Tbsp rolled oats (unground).
• NOTE: If you can't grind/blend the rolled oats, substitute 1 cup oat flour (or any flour) for the 1 cup of ground rolled oats in step #6.
• NOTE: This is my adaptation of a recipe from King Arthur Flour: KAF "Vermont Whole Wheat Oatmeal Honey Bread." The main difference being that I replaced water and whole wheat flour with buttermilk and oat flour. Both recipes use whole rolled oats, but I've doubled it's proportion.
