I baked the bread at 210 degree Celsius for 40 minutes...it felt like uncooked so kept for another 20 minutes....but then also it seems to be under cooked .. took all the ingredients accordingly....plz plz tell wat could be the reason??? Another thing wen I mixed wet ingredients with dry...it got very sticky dough.. should I have added more milk?

Very tasty!! And easy to make! I did as another reviewer suggested by leaving the oats whole as we like "chunky" bread. It was delicious and everyone LOVED it! We couldn't wait for it to cool completely so it didn't slice as easily as I would have liked, but I think it will once it is completely cooled. Thanks for a great quick bread recipe!

I'm baking this recipe right now. I was glad to find it because I was looking for egg-free quick breads that I could feed to our baby. I'm using maple syrup instead of honey (no honey for the baby!) and 2 small ripe bananas instead of the oil (just because the baby likes bananas). I didn't have any whole wheat flour, so I'm using white flour and substituting unprocessed bran for the rolled oats. This is the first time I'm baking with soymilk--one of our dinner guests tonight is lactose intolerant. Hope it'll be a crowd-pleaser!

This bread has been one of my favorite things since I was a child - but I love a really dense, whole-grain bread, and yes, in 20 years of making this, I've never gotten it to rise. My recipe, which I just made, calls for 2/3 the amount of all the ingredients listed here, and molasses instead of honey (honey sounds good, though). It also calls for patting the dough with floured hands on a greased, floured cookie sheet into a 1/2 inch circle, and then pricking it all over with a fork, baking for 10 minutes or more, and serving in wedges. I love it with crazy amounts of good butter, sharp cheddar, and tart apples.
