Ingredients

Method

  1. 1. Warm the milk to lukewarm and whisk in the honey and yeast.
  2. 2. Mix the bread flour, oat flour, and salt, then add the milk, water, and softened butter and bring together into a soft, slightly tacky dough.
  3. 3. Knead until smooth and elastic, 8–10 min; the oat flour makes it softer than a plain white dough, so resist working in much extra flour.
  4. 4. Rise covered until doubled, ~1–1.5 h.
  5. 5. Shape into a log, set seam-side down in a greased loaf pan, and proof until it crowns the rim, ~45–60 min.
  6. 6. Brush with milk and scatter oats on top if desired.
  7. 7. Bake at 350°F / 175°C until deep golden and ~195°F / 90°C internal, ~35–40 min.
  8. 8. Cool fully before slicing.

Notes

Gets its oat flavor from oat flour rather than rolled oats, for an even crumb.
