Buttermilk Oatmeal Bread

•  1 cup water
•  ¼ cup butter
• 1 ½ tsp salt
•  2T sugar
• 1 ½ cup bread flour
•  ½ cup whole wheat flour
• ½ cup buttermilk powder
• 1 cup oats
• 1 ½ tsp yeast

Night before: 

Put into the bread machine container in the order listed; liquids go on the bottom, and yeast goes in last.  Set the timer, so that bread finishes about 30 minutes before breakfast. 

 

Next morning:

Slice, slather with butter, or cover with cottage cheese or cheddar cheese, and enjoy!

NOTES:

·         See the white specks in the bread?  Well, I got to the point that I was going to add the oats, and discovered I had neither rolled oats or quick oats.  So I used steel cut oats.  Added a little crunch to the bread, but still delicious.   Experiment is another word for “what the heck do I do now?”  Usually it works.  Be daring!  Usually not something you hear associated with oatmeal.
