Toasted Oatmeal Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the oats, and toast, tossing and turning oats, until oatmeal is browned and fragrant, about 4 minutes. Add 4 cups water and salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until most of the water has evaporated and the oatmeal is tender, about 30 minutes for the Irish oatmeal and 10 minutes for the old-fashioned rolled oats. Serve hot with the toppings of your choice.

Steps:

• Melt butter or margarine in a small frying pan over medium/medium low heat.
• Add the oatmeal and stir so that it is evenly coated.
• Cook until the oatmeal starts turning golden brown and a little crunchy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the brown sugar, again stirring well to coat the oatmeal.
• Cook 1 to 2 minutes more, until the brown sugar is completely melted and dispersed, and the oatmeal is very golden brown.
• Serve on top of yogurt, or with a small amount of milk or cream.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine 1 cup flour, sugar, yeast and salt; mix well. In a small saucepan, heat water, milk, molasses and butter until a thermometer reads 120°-130° (butter does not need to melt). Add to yeast mixture; beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add egg, oats and 2 cups flour; beat on high for 2 minutes. Stir in nuts and enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours. Punch dough down. Shape into two round loaves; place on greased baking sheets. With sharp knife, cut four parallel slashes on top of each loaf. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Bake at 375° for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans; cool on wire racks.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter until lightly browned. Add oats, stirring constantly until golden, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat; cool. Combine flour and baking soda; set aside. In a large bowl, beat brown sugar, eggs and vanilla until light. Stir in dry ingredients and peanuts until well blended. Let stand for 15 minutes. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes or until golden. Remove to wire rack to cool.

Steps:

• Toast the 1 cup oatmeal by spreading in a cake pan and placing in a 375 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until light brown.
• In large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, toasted oatmeal, sugar, salt and yeast; blend well.
• In small saucepan, heat milk and butter or margarine until very warm (120 to 130 degrees F.).
• Add warm liquid and egg to flour mixture.
• Using a mixer, blend at low speed until moistened; beat 3 minutes at medium speed.
• Stir in an additional 3 1/4 to 3 1/2 cups flour until dough pulls cleanly away from sides of bowl.
• Turn out dough on floured surface and knead in 1/4 to 1/2 cup more flour until dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
• Place dough in greased bowl; cover loosely wth plastic wrap and cloth towel. Let rise in warm place until light and doubled in size, about 40 to 60 minutes.
• Punch down dough and divide in half. Shape into two loaves by patting dough out into 14 x 7 rectangular shape and rolling up, starting with shorter side. Pinch edges firmly to seal.
• Place seam side down in two greased 8x4 or 9x5 loaf pans. Cover; let rise in warm place until dough fills pans and tops of loaves are about 1 inch above pan edges, about 30 to 40 minutes.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• In small bowl, combine water and egg white; beat slightly. Carefully brush on loaves; sprinkle with 1 tablespoons old fashioned oatmeal.
• Bake for 25 to 35 minutes or until loaves sound hollow when lightly tapped.
• Remove from pans immediately; cool on wire racks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line baking sheet with tin foil, if desired.
• Spread oats in a shallow layer on a cookie sheet.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned, stir occasionally.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Evenly spread oats AND walnuts in ungreased jelly roll pan. Bake 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until light brown; cool completely.
• Beat together brown sugar, butter, vanilla and eggs in large bowl.
• Gradually add in the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cardamom, and salt.
• Stir in the toasted oatmeal/walnut mixture.
• Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Cool about 2 minutes before removing from cookie sheets to cool on a wire rack.
