Time 50m

Yield 2 loaves, 32 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 cup old fashioned oats
2 tablespoons shortening
2 teaspoons salt
1 (1/4 ounce) package active dry yeast
3/4 cup warm water (110 to 115 )
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
4 3/4-5 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
melted butter

Steps:

  • In a bowl, combine the first four ingredients. Cool to 110°-115°. In a bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Sprinkle with sugar. Add oat mixture, brown sugar, molasses and 3 cups flour; mix well. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. turn onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down. Divide in half; shape into loaves. Place in two greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30-45 minutes. Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans; cool on wire racks. Brush with butter. Yield: 2 loaves.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bread didn't turn out right. It was too dense and dry.

This bread is perfect for sandwiches. It's sturdy enough to hold up to all the fillings, but it's also soft and fluffy.

I didn't have any molasses, so I used honey instead. It turned out great!
