I love steel cut oats so I was very pleased to find this recipe. It originally came from the Joy of Cooking but I've tweaked it. Ingredients:
1 cup steel cut oats |
1/4 cup dark molasses |
1 tablespoon softened butter |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
2 cups boiling water |
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup warm water |
1/4 ounce dry yeast |
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour |
1 cup nuts, coarse-chopped (optional) |
Directions:
1. Measure oats, molasses, butter and salt into a mixing bowl.
2. Pour boiling water over these ingredients. Stir in 2 cups flour. Cool.
3. While this mixture is cooling mix dry yeast with 1/4 cup warm water.
4. After flour mixture is cool add yeast mixture and stir in 2 cups flour. Add nuts if desired. Knead mixture until smooth and let rise in a covered greased mixing bowl. When mixture is doubled punch down and form into loaf.
5. Preheat oven to 375 Place dough in a 5 x 9 greased loaf pan. Let rise until doubled. Bake bread 40 - 50 minutes or until brown.
