Ingredients
- 240 ml Warm water
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 60 ml Honey
- 30 g Butter, melted
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 360 g All-purpose flour
- 120 g Rolled oats
- 1 large Egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons Additional rolled oats (for topping)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Step 2
Add the honey, melted butter, and salt to the yeast mixture, and stir until combined.
Step 3
Mix in the all-purpose flour and rolled oats gradually, using a wooden spoon or a stand mixer with a dough hook, until a soft dough forms.
Step 4
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8–10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Alternatively, knead using a stand mixer on medium speed for about 5 minutes.
Step 5
Place the kneaded dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and allow it to rise in a warm, draft-free area for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it doubles in size.
Step 6
Once risen, punch down the dough to release the air. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a loaf.
Step 7
Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and place the shaped dough into the pan. Cover it loosely with the kitchen towel and let it rise again for about 30-45 minutes, or until it's peeking over the top of the pan.
Step 8
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Step 9
Before baking, brush the top of the loaf with the beaten egg and sprinkle the additional rolled oats over the top.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
Step 11
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
