Orange Oatmeal Raisin Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Place oats, molasses, butter, and salt into the bread maker bowl; add the boiling water.
• Measure 1/4 teaspoon sugar into a small cup and set aside. Pour remaining sugar into the oat mixture and stir. Let mixture cool to about 100 degrees F/38 degrees C, about 20 minutes.
• Pour warm water into the reserved sugar in the small cup; add yeast.
• Pour bread flour atop the oat mixture. Pour yeast mixture over the flour.
• Select Dough setting and press start. Check your owner's manual to see how long the kneading lasts, so you can add raisins to the dough 5 minutes before it finishes kneading. Let the bread maker run the full dough cycle, about 1 hour, though it will depend on your machine.
