Cook Time 30 minutes
Rising time 3 hours

Equipment

  • 1 1lb Loaf Tin

Ingredients

  • ½ cup Oatmeal - raw weight
  • ½ cup Milk - plant-based
  • ½ cup Water - warm to 100f
  • 1 tbsp Butter - vegan
  • cup Brown sugar
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Instant yeast
  • cups Plain flour

Instructions

  • Place the oats in a large mixing bowl.
  • Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water in a small bowl and leave to activate.
  • In a saucepan, gently warm the milk, butter and brown sugar.
  • Once melted, pour over the oats and leave to stand for 5 minutes.
  • Add the yeast mixture and blend.
  • Gradually beat in the flour and salt with a wooden spoon until you have a cohesive dough.
  • Leave to rest for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead for 5 minutes or until the dough feels elastic.
  • Place the dough in a mixing bowl and cover, leaving to rise until doubled, 1-2 hours (depending on how warm your kitchen is).
  • Once risen, knock the dough back and give a gently knead, before putting into the loaf tin.
  • Leave to rise for another hour or so.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 180c for 30 minutes or until the loaf is lightly golden brown and sounds hollow on the bottom.
  • Leave to cool in the tin for just a couple of minutes before turning out and allowing to cool completely on a rack.

Please note that where the recipe asks for milk, butter or yogurt, this refers to any plant-based version that you prefer.
