Oat bread

1d bread

For this bread, you have to start the day before you want to bake it. On that day, it only needs a few minutes. On the next day, it takes about 20 min to prepare and 45min to bake.

Ingredients

  • 200g oat flakes
  • 400ml buttermilk
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 250-300g flour

Directions

  • Soak the oat flakes in the buttermilk. Leave in the fridge over night.
  • The next morning, preheat the oven to 180°C. If you have a fan oven, do not preheat and use 160°C to bake later.
  • Mix the baking powder, the salt and 250g of flour in a large bowl.
  • Add the oat-flake-buttermilk mixture to the bowl. Knead until smooth.
  • The dough should stop sticking to your hands after some kneading. If it doesn’t, add more flour until it does.
  • Form two loaves from the dough.
  • Place them on a tray with baking paper and put it the oven (middle rack) for about 45min.
  • Tap it with a wooden implement (e.g. a spoon) to see if it’s done. It should sound hollow. You may have to bake it up to 10min more.

This bread is really tasty, even our cat likes it.
