HONEY WHEAT OATMEAL BREAD

Steps:

• Put into bread pan in the order suggested by your machine's manufacturer: Set the machine for the regular white bread cycle, and if you can adjust the darkness, you don't want this to get too dark.
• If you prefer a softer crust, easier to slice for sandwiches, then as soon as you take it out of the pan, put it right into a large plastic bag, and close tightly.
• The hot bread will steam the crust and make it very soft.

HONEY WHEAT OATMEAL BREAD - ALL WHOLE GRAIN VERSION

Steps:

• Put ingredients into bread pan in the order suggested by the manufacturer of the bread machine.
• If you're going to use a timer, it is vital to keep the yeast away from both the liquids AND the salt.
• I make this on the white bread cycle and it comes out great, but you may wish to use the whole wheat cycle.
• I never noticed any difference except that the whole wheat cycle took a lot longer.
• Your machine may yield different results, tho.
• If you like crusty bread, just let the finished bread set on a rack to cool.
• If you want a softer crust, slip the hot bread into a plastic bag so that the crust will get steamed and be nice& soft- and good for sandwiches.

HONEY WHEAT BREAD

Steps:

BREAD MACHINE HONEY-OAT-WHEAT BREAD

Steps:

• Place the yeast, sugar, and water in the pan of a bread machine. Allow yeast to dissolve and foam, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, rolled oats, powdered milk, and salt in a bowl; set aside. Add the honey, vegetable oil, and butter to the yeast mixture, and pour the flour mixture on top.
• Select the Dough cycle; press start. Allow the bread machine to complete the cycle, about 1 1/2 hours, then transfer the dough to a 9x5-inch loaf pan sprayed with cooking spray. Allow the bread to rise for 1 hour in a warm place.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden brown, about 35 minutes.

VERMONT WHOLE WHEAT OATMEAL HONEY BREAD

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the water, oats, maple sugar, honey, butter, salt and cinnamon. Let cool to lukewarm.
• Add the yeast and flours, stirring to form a rough dough. Knead (about 10 minutes by hand, 5 to 7 minutes by machine) until the dough is smooth and satiny. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover the bowl with lightly greased plastic wrap, and allow the dough to rise for 1 hour.
• Divide the dough in half, and shape each half into a loaf. Place the loaves in two greased 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch bread pans. Cover the pans with lightly greased plastic wrap and allow the loaves to rise till they've crowned about 1 inch over the rim of the pan, about 1 hour.
• 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 registers 190°F on an instant-read thermometer. Yield: 2 sandwich loaves.
• *If your oven can't be set at 360°F, set it at 350°F and bake the bread for 35 to 40 minutes.

• Place loaves on a lightly greased cookie sheet (or 1/2 sheet pan), cover with cloth again and let rise for 45 minutes.
