Whole Wheat Oatmeal Honey Bread from Vermont
A delightful and hearty bread recipe that combines the rustic flavors of whole wheat, oats, honey, and cinnamon. Perfect for sandwiches or to enjoy on its own.
Ingredients
| 2 | boiling water |
|---|---|
| 1 | cup rolled oats |
| 1⁄2 | cup maple sugar |
| 1 | tablespoon honey |
| 1⁄4 | cup butter |
| 1 | tablespoon kosher salt |
| 1 | teaspoon cinnamon (Saigon cinnamon preferred) |
| 1 | tablespoon instant yeast |
| 1 1⁄2 | 100% white whole wheat flour |
| 4 | unbleached all-purpose flour |
Instructions
| 1. | In a large mixing bowl, combine the boiling water, rolled oats, maple sugar, honey, butter, kosher salt, and Saigon cinnamon. Allow the mixture to cool to lukewarm. |
|---|---|
| 2. | Add the instant yeast and both types of flour, stirring to create a rough dough. Knead the dough until it is smooth and satiny, about 10 minutes by hand or 5 to 7 minutes by machine. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover it with greased plastic wrap, and let it rise for 1 hour. |
| 3. | Divide the dough into two equal parts and shape each into a loaf. Place the loaves in two greased 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch bread pans. Cover the pans with greased plastic wrap and allow the loaves to rise until they've crowned about 1 inch over the rim of the pan, approximately 1 hour. |
| 4. | Bake the loaves in a preheated 360°F oven for 33 minutes. Remove them from the oven when they're golden brown and the interior temperature reaches 190°F on an instant-read thermometer. This recipe yields 2 perfectly sized sandwich loaves. |
| 5. | If your oven cannot be set at 360°F, adjust it to 350°F and bake the bread for 35 to 40 minutes. |
