Toasted Oats Bread Food

3 INGREDIENT HEALTHY OAT BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and line an 8 x 4 inch baking loaf pan with parchment paper. If you don't have this size baking pan see notes for other options.
• In a large mixing bowl add oat flour and baking powder. Whisk until baking powder is evenly incorporated into the flour. If desired, you can also mix in 1/2 tsp salt. This will not affect the bread texture but will add a little more flavor to the bread. If you are trying to make a sweet bread, don't add the salt.
• Add in the yogurt. When adding in the yogurt, make sure to not drain out any of the liquid from the yogurt that may be at the top. You want to use that liquid in the bread. Use a spatula to slowly add the yogurt into the batter. Keep folding in the yogurt until it is evenly and completely incorporated. Your dough should be very thick and very sticky.
• Scrape your dough into the prepared baking pan. Use the spatula to help evenly spread the dough across the pan. Dampen your fingers with a tiny bit of water and then lightly press on the surface of the bread to smooth out the dough. If desired, sprinkle about 1 tbsp of rolled oats across surface and gently press the oats slightly into the surface of the bread so that they stick when baking.
• Bake bread for about 40-45 minutes. The bread should be lightly browned on top and when you press on the surface it should bounce back and not sink in. Let bread cool before cutting and serving. Bread can be toasted or eaten as is with your favorite spread.

TOASTED OAT OATMEAL BREAD

Steps:

• Toast the 1 cup oatmeal by spreading in a cake pan and placing in a 375 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until light brown.
• In large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, toasted oatmeal, sugar, salt and yeast; blend well.
• In small saucepan, heat milk and butter or margarine until very warm (120 to 130 degrees F.).
• Add warm liquid and egg to flour mixture.
• Using a mixer, blend at low speed until moistened; beat 3 minutes at medium speed.
• Stir in an additional 3 1/4 to 3 1/2 cups flour until dough pulls cleanly away from sides of bowl.
• Turn out dough on floured surface and knead in 1/4 to 1/2 cup more flour until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
• Place dough in greased bowl; cover loosely wth plastic wrap and cloth towel. Let rise in warm place until light and doubled in size, about 40 to 60 minutes.
• Punch down dough and divide in half. Shape into two loaves by patting dough out into 14 x 7 rectangular shape and rolling up, starting with shorter side. Pinch edges firmly to seal.
• Place seam side down in two greased 8x4 or 9x5 loaf pans. Cover; let rise in warm place until dough fills pans and tops of loaves are about 1 inch above pan edges, about 30 to 40 minutes.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• In small bowl, combine water and egg white; beat slightly. Carefully brush on loaves; sprinkle with 1 tablespoons old fashioned oatmeal.
• Bake for 25 to 35 minutes or until loaves sound hollow when lightly tapped.
• Remove from pans immediately; cool on wire racks.

TOASTED OATS BREAD

Steps:

• The night before making the bread, combine the flour, water, and starter. Cover and let sit in a warm spot.
• The night before making the bread, add the rolled oats to a dry cast iron or stainless skillet and place it over medium high heat. Stir the oats regularly, until the oats are fragrant, about 7 minutes. Transfer them to a medium bowl and stir in the boiling water. Cover and let sit overnight.
• Sift the whole wheat flour into a large mixing bowl. Reserving the bran for dusting the brotform. Add the bread flour and water to the sifted whole wheat flour. Stir with a wooden spoon or dough whisk.
• Add the starter to the large bowl. Use a dough whisk or wooden spoon to form a rough dough. Cover the bowl and let the dough rest for 30 minutes.
• Sprinkle the salt over the dough.
• With a wet hand, pinch and squeeze the salt into the dough. Keep pinching and folding the dough over itself until it is relatively smooth. Cover and let rest for about 30 minutes.
• Add the oats to the dough, and, using a wet hand, fold the dough over itself from all four "sides." Continue to fold until the oats are incorporated. Cover and let rest for 30 more minutes.
• Repeat the folding step 2 more times in 30 minute intervals. After the final time of folding, leave the covered bowl in a draft free area until the dough has almost doubled.
• Dust the insides of a brotform or a towel lined 9 inch bowl with the bran and some all purpose flour. You can also add a bit of rice flour to prevent sticking.
• Turn the dough out onto your work surface and flatten it into a disk. Without breaking the skin on the bottom, use the dough scraper to fold the dough in half. Turn the dough a quarter turn and continue folding until a ball is created. Leave it seam side down and use the sides of the dough scraper to tighten the dough ball further.
• Place shaped loaf seam-side up in the brotform. Cover with a damp tea towel or oiled plastic wrap and let sit for an hour or so to allow the loaf to almost double.
• You can use the finger dent test to see if the dough is ready (press the dough with a wet finger and if it springs back right away, wait another 15 minutes. If it comes back slowly, the dough is ready).
• Place a cast-iron combo cooker (or lidded Dutch oven) on the middle rack of your oven and preheat the oven to hot (we set ours to 450F).
• When ready to bake, remove the hot combo cooker from the oven and remove the lid. Cover your banneton with heavy duty parchment paper and place a plate over the parchment. Flip the whole thing over and lift off the brotform. Using the parchment paper, transfer the round along with the parchment on the bottom, into the hot shallow pan of the combo-cooker. Using a lame, sharp knife, or scissors, score the bread in the pattern you like.
• Bake for 30 minutes with the lid on. After 30 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and transfer the loaf to a baking sheet. Place the loaf back in the oven and continue baking for another 20 to 30 minutes, until the crust is dark golden brown and the bread sounds reaches an internal temperature of about 205 degrees F.
• Cool the loaf completely on a wire rack.
