Oat And Seed Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and grease a baking sheet. Put the flours, oats, bicarb and 1 tsp salt in a large bowl and stir to combine. Tip the yogurt into a jug, add enough water to make it up to 400ml and mix well. Stir the treacle and honey into the yogurt mixture until they dissolve. Pour onto the dry ingredients and stir with a round-bladed knife until you have a soft, sticky dough.
• Tip onto a lightly floured surface and lightly form the dough into a round. Lift onto the baking sheet, cut a deep cross in the dough and sprinkle with oats. Bake for 30 mins or until the crust is golden and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped underneath. Soda bread should be eaten the same day, or toasted the next.

Steps:

• Mix warm water and sugar together in a bowl until sugar is dissolved; stir in yeast. Set aside until a creamy foam starts to form, about 5 minutes.
• Combine bread flour, whole wheat flour, coconut oil, and salt in a food processor; pulse 4 times. Add chia seeds, wheat germ, flax seeds, millet, 1 tablespoon hemp seeds, 1 tablespoon sunflower seeds, and 1 tablespoon oats; pulse until incorporated.
• Pour yeast mixture over flour mixture in the food processor; process until a dough ball forms, about 1 minute.
• Turn dough into a well-oiled large bowl and cover with a damp towel; allow to rise in a warm area until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Punch dough down and knead a few times. Form dough into an oblong shape and place in a greased bread pan. Lightly press the remaining hemp seeds, sunflower seeds, and oats onto the loaf. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm area for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and crust is lightly browned, about 30 minutes. Cool bread in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Take one cup warm water, combine yeast and sugar, set aside.
• The remaining 3 cups of water should be (tap) hot. Add oil, molasses, flax, sunflower seeds, oats, and salt.
• Mix in whole wheat flower.
• Mix in yeast mixture which should have risen nicely.
• Knead in white flour, adding until it is no longer sticky but is still soft.
• Allow to rise covered for an hour and a half, turning under every half hour.
• Divide into three large loaf pans, heat oven to 375'F, allow to rise in pans until oven heats up.
• Bake for about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• The easy way: Throw it all into a bread machine and select dough. When finished proceed to step 9.
• The hard way: Dissolve yeast in warm water.
• In a large bowl, combine butter, molasses, honey and salt and mix well.
• Add yeast mixture and then gradually add flours.
• Turn onto floured surface and knead until smooth.
• Place in buttered bowl and let rise until double.
• Punch down and let rest for a few minutes.
• Divide dough into 4 parts and shape into loaves.
• Place in greased pans and let rise for about an hour.
• Bake at 375* for 35 to 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook potato in enough water to cover.
• Drain, retaining the water.
• Measure 140 ml of potato water into a small bowl and set aside to cool to lukewarm. Don't discard the rest of the potato water - to this add the oats to soften.
• Mash the potato well with a little of the milk.
• When the potato water in the small bowl has cooled to lukewarm, add the yeast. Set this aside until it has a good frothy "head".
• Mix remainder of milk and oil together.
• Sift flour and salt into large bowl and make a well in centre.
• Add the milk and oil, the mashed potato, frothy yeast, and the softened oats.
• Mix well and knead until smooth and elastic - more flour may be needed but try to keep the dough as soft as possible.
• Set aside to rise until double in size.
• Knock back and knead very lightly.
• Allow to rise a further 30 minutes and then divide into three and form into cob loaves.
• Glaze with beaten egg and sprinkle with your choice of topping. I use either sesame seeds, poppy seeds or oats.
• Bake 220 celsius for about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to bread machine and set on whole wheat cycle.
