Oatmeal Whole Wheat Quick Bread

"I found this on AllRecipes, posted by Zoe. She says "There's no yeast in this bread, so it's good for special diets. You may also use soy milk instead of regular milk if you wish. It's pretty dense, but great when fresh from the oven. Especially with butter and honey on cold mornings!" I have personally made this a number of times as a quick accompaniment to warm soup. The original recipe calls for an oven temp of 450, but I find this gets too brown if I go that high. Also, I have made this as both a rustic round loaf and in a loaf pan. When I want to make a round loaf I put it on a cookie sheet. It does flatten a bit while cooking, though, so if I want slices instead of wedges I will put it in a loaf pan and tent w/ foil to avoid burning the crust. Yes, the dough will be more like a batter than a traditional bread dough, but I promise it will come out as bread!"

  1. I LOVED the taste and texture of this bread! Mmm, it was sooo good, very hearty yet also fluffy and with a crunchy crust. Mmmm, very, very moreish! :)<br/>The honey was a great addition and added something special, I loved that!<br/>My only problem with this recipe was that I could not shape the dough into a loaf, cause it was way too wet, much more like muffin batter. So I just went with it and baked this in a muffin tin. It worked out lovely in about 20 minutes and was just perfect.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this keeper with us, smelly!<br/>Made and reviewed for our VIP during Veggie Swap #35 June 2011.
     
  2. Are you sure the measurements are correct on this recipe? This is the second time I have made this, I followed the instructions exactly and both times my dough has come out runny... more like a batter than a dough. It is definitely not the consistency that can be shaped into a loaf. It seems as if it either needs more flour or less liquid, not sure which. I pour it into a loaf pan and bake it like corn bread. It is still pretty good though.
     
  3. Hey, I thought this was really tasty. I added garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. I also didn't grind up the oats, because I'm lazy. Baked in a loaf pan and tented with foil. Makes a really dense bread and you can't beat how EASY this recipe was. Thanks for sharing!
     
  4. Didn't work for me. Because of allergies I couldn't use honey or milk. Had to substitute brown sugar and soy milk. My guess is I didn't use the right proportion of wet to dry?
     
  5. This turned out good. It reminded me of cornbread. There was no way I could have baked a loaf without using a pan, the batter was too thin. It took about 25 mins in my oven. I love that it didn't call for a lot of sugar or fat, it was a breeze to mix up and I liked the texture from the whole wheat flour. Thanks for posting the recipe.

I live in Knoxville, TN with DH, my beautiful son, and the most spoiled cat on the planet! I grew up in Cincinnati and landed in TN by way of Bloomington, IN and Santa Fe, NM. Needless to say, it's been a long, strange trip!! To explain the name: I was veg for 11 years, vegan for 1. In the last year or so I started eating poultry and fish again, but my brother-in-law's nickname for me (smelly vegetarian) has always stuck. Also...thanks a million to my Zaar fairy godperson :)!!! <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Holiday-plaid_HPI.gif"> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/cc-banner-7-09.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/590105/hcabc.jpg> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/My-3-Chefs%20banners/my3chefs2008Small.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
