Oatmeal Bread

I have to say, I'm not a very good bread-baker. I've been fortunate enough to have had a couple of successes. And definitely motivated to perfect them and try new recipes!

Some breads that I've made were crusty on the outside and soft on the inside, right out from the oven. But as soon as they cool down, they're rock hard and just not something I wanna eat.

This attempt worked like magic!

Moist EVEN after it's cooled, lotsa visible air bubbles that make it really soft and fluffy

I am Definitely making this over and over

They would make perfect burger buns too I reckon.

recipe:

2 cups warm water

11g instant yeast

6 tablespoons brown sugar

1/2 cup oil

4 1/2 cups all purpose flour, sifted

1 cup rolled oats, ground finely

pinch of salt

Combine water, yeast and sugar in a large mixing bowl

Leave in a warm place for 10 minutes or until the mixture turns Frothy and bubbly

Add in the oil, sifted flour, oatmeal and salt

Use a wooden spatula and fold everything together to form a dough

The dough should be only slightly sticky and very soft

Using your hands if necessary, lightly knead in any lumps, in the bowl itself (this is a no knead recipe after all)

Cover with cling and leave to rise for 1 hour until it has doubled in size.

Flour your hands again and grab any portion of dough you need to make desired shapes.

(Be it a loaf, roll, bun, whatever)

Place the dough on a baking tray lined with grease-proof paper

Cover with a tea towel and leave it for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200C

Bake the bread for 15-25 minutes depending on their sizes.

To check for doneness, tap the tops and it should sound hollow.

Remove from the heat, cover them with a tea towel and cool completely.

These are best eaten when Cooled.
