Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the oats and boiling water. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to soften the oats.

Gradually add the wet oat mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Slice and serve your delicious Poppy Seed Oatmeal Bread. Enjoy!
