Oatmeal Bread

Ingredients

160 gr old-fashioned rolled oats
28 gr butter
4 gr salt
75 ml honey
2 packages dry yeast
120 ml warm milk
3 hulled sunflower seeds
24 gr walnuts
750 gr bread flour
240 ml water

Instructions

cool to room temperature. Meanwhile, mix the yeast into the warm milk and let stand until bubbles appear, about 10 minutes. Add to the oatmeal mixture and mix well. Add sunflower seeds and walnuts if desired. Then mix in 1 cup of the flour at a time, kneading in the last quarter cup of flour if needed to make a firm dough. Let stand in a covered bowl in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Divide into 2 portions, knead well and form into loaves. Place in 2 well-greased 7.5-by- 9 cm loaf pans, cover and let rise again for 20 minutes. (The dough will not rise to the top because it is low n gluten). Brush the tops of the loaves with water, sprinkle with oats and bake in 375-degree oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until loaves are nicely golden. Remove from pans and let cool on wire rack. Makes 2 loaves of 10 slices each. Per serving: 121 cal; 3g pro, 23g carb, 2g fat(13%)
