Ingredients
- 2 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3 cups Flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 0.25 cup Additional oats for topping
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the old-fashioned rolled oats and warm water. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to soften the oats.
Step 2
Add the honey, coconut oil, and salt to the oat mixture, stirring until well combined.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the active dry yeast with 1/4 cup of lukewarm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until the yeast becomes foamy.
Step 4
Add the foamy yeast mixture to the oat mixture and stir to combine.
Step 5
Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. The dough should be soft but not sticky. You may need to use your hands to incorporate the last bit of flour.
Step 6
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 7
Place the kneaded dough into a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Step 8
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 9
Punch down the risen dough and shape it into a loaf. Place it into a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Step 10
Brush a little water over the top of the loaf and sprinkle additional oats on top for garnish.
Step 11
Cover the loaf loosely with plastic wrap and let it rise again for about 30 minutes, or until it has risen about 1 inch above the pan.
Step 12
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
Step 13
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
