I love rolled oats, especially in baked goods because it gives them a nice texture, flavor, and some added fiber. Don’t miss other recipes using oats, like Carrot Muffins, Oatmeal Cake, and Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies.

1. Soak the oats: Add oats and butter to the bowl of a stand mixer or to a large mixing bowl. Heat milk to a simmer and pour on top, stirring to combine. Set aside for about 1.5 hours. Mixture should be at room temperature.

2. Make bread: Add honey, warm water, instant yeast, salt to the bowl and stir well to combine. Add the whole wheat flour and mix on medium low speed until combined. Add the all-purpose flour, a little at a time, until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. Only add enough flour to make a dough that is soft, and not overly sticky (don’t add too much flour!). Knead for a few minutes until smooth and elastic and scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.

3. Let rise:Transfer dough to a greased bowl and cover with a dish towel or plastic wrap. Allow to rise until double in size, about 1 hour.

4. Shape loaves: Punch down the dough and divide into two. Shape into loaves and place in two lightly greased loaf pans. Make egg wash and gently brush some over the top of each loaf. Sprinkle a small handful of dry oats on top.

Piece of plastic wrap gently laid on top and let rise in a warm place until risen about 1 inch over the loaf pans, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Carefully peel off the plastic wrap.

To make in a bread machine: You may want to halve the recipe to make one loaf, depending on the capacity of your bread machine.
