Oatandseedbread Recipes

Steps:

• In bread machine pan, place the milk, 2 tablespoons butter, vanilla, brown sugar, salt, flours and yeast in order suggested by manufacturer. Select basic bread setting. Choose crust color and loaf size if available., Bake according to bread machine directions (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed)., Just before the final kneading (your machine may audibly signal this), add oats and nuts. Brush baked loaf with remaining butter.

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:

• Make dough:
• Pulse oats in a food processor until coarsely ground. Add flour, baking powder and soda, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt, then pulse to mix well. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk and pulse until dough just forms a ball. Divide dough into quarters and cover with a kitchen towel.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Form flatbreads:
• Roll out 1 piece of dough on a floured surface with a floured rolling pin into a 10 1/2- by 8 1/2-inch rectangle. Brush lightly with beaten egg and sprinkle evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon anise seeds. Gently roll pin lightly over seeds to help them adhere.
• Trim dough (to a 10- by 8-inch rectangle) with a fluted pastry wheel or sharp knife. Cut lengthwise in half, then crosswise into sixths for a total of 12 strips (4 by 1 2/3 inches). Arrange strips 1/2inch apart on a buttered baking sheet and make more in same manner, using another buttered baking sheet for last 2 batches.
• Bake flatbreads:
• Bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until glaze is golden brown and flatbreads are crisp, 15 to 20 minutes total. Transfer to racks to cool.

Steps:

• Combine the flour, yeast, and salt in a large bowl and mix to combine. Add the water and herbs, if using, and mix well. The dough will be very sticky and shaggy-looking. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set aside at room temperature for 18 to 24 hours.
• Generously flour a work surface. The dough will have risen and will be covered in bubbles. Transfer the dough to the work surface and dust it with flour. Fold the dough in half, and then form the dough into a ball by stretching and tucking the edges of the dough underneath the ball.
• Liberally flour a kitchen towel (do not use terrycloth). Place the dough ball on the floured towel. Cover with another floured towel. Let the dough rise for about two hours [see footnote].
• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place a lidded Dutch oven or deep heavy duty casserole dish (with lid) into the oven to preheat.
• Carefully remove the hot baking dish from the oven. Remove the lid and gently turn the dough ball into the ungreased baking dish, seam-side up; shake the dish so the dough is more evenly distributed.
• Cover and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the lid and bake until the crust is golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the loaf from the baking dish and let it cool on a rack before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line a baking tray with baking parchment. Blitz the oats in a food processor until fine, then tip into a large bowl along with the flour, bicarbonate of soda, ½ tsp salt and 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Quickly mix together to combine. Mix in 130g of the cheese and all of the spring onions.
• Mix the buttermilk and mustard together in a jug, then pour this into the dry ingredients and use a cutlery knife to quickly mix into a soft, shaggy dough. If the dough still looks dry, add another 1-2 tbsp buttermilk. Turn the dough out on a floured surface and knead briefly to just bring it together into a ball.
• Transfer the dough to the prepared tray and flatten it slightly into a thick disc using your palm. Use a sharp knife to cut a very deep cross into the top, then scatter with the remaining cheese and a small handful of oats. Bake for 35-45 mins until deeply browned and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Leave to cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
