Rustic Oat Bran Bread Recipe
  • Prep: 30 min. + rising Bake: 20 min. + cooling
  • Yield: 12 Servings
30 20 50

Ingredients

  • 2-1/4 to 2-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup oat bran
  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon cornmeal

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, oat bran, yeast and salt. In a small saucepan, heat water and honey to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat just until moistened. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough (dough will be sticky).
  • Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a bowl coated with cooking spray, turning once to coat the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
  • Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into a round loaf. Place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray and sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes. With a sharp knife, make three diagonal slashes across top of loaf.
  • Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from baking sheet to wire rack to cool. Yield: 1 loaf (12 wedges).

We typically go for the light and crusty breads and I don't make too many from scratch but I wanted to try a heavier loaf to go with some chicken noodle soup tonight. This fit the bill. It was easy, used ingredients I had on hand, heavy, moist, not too large, had a hint of sweetness and everyone loved it. I will definately make it again. Thanks Nancy!

Oat bran is a hot cereal. It is with the oatmeal in the grocery stores.
