Cook Time 40 minutes
Rising Time 2 hours 45 minutes
Servings1 loaf

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/3 cups milk see notes
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp packed brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup quick oats
  • 1/4 cup oat bran
  • 1 1/2 tsp bread machine yeast
  • oat topping: 1/4 cup oats

Instructions
 

  • Add all of the above ingredients, in the order that they are listed, into your bread machine.
    1 1/3 cups milk, 1 tsp salt, 3 tbsp packed brown sugar, 2 tbsp butter, 1 cup whole wheat flour, 2 cups all purpose flour, 1/2 cup quick oats, 1/4 cup oat bran, 1 1/2 tsp bread machine yeast
  • Choose the 'Dough Cycle'.
  • Once the dough cycle is complete, remove the dough to a lightly floured surface and cover with a damp, clean tea towel. Let rise for 15 minutes.
  • Prepare 1 loaf pan: I line my pan with parchment paper, but you can also grease it with butter.
  • Now let's shape the dough into a loaf. Lightly knead the dough one more time to get rid of any air bubbles. Then roll the ball into a rectangular tube shape that will fit into the baking pan. You want the top of the loaf to be taut, so while keeping the dough in a tube shape, you need to tuck in the ends into the bottom of the loaf.
  • Wet your hands and lightly rub the outside of the loaf, then roll the loaf in oats.
    oat topping: 1/4 cup oats
  • Add the dough to the prepared loaf pan and cover with the tea towel, and let rise for 1 hour.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  • When the loaf is done rising, bake for 40 minutes. When the bread is done, it will sound hollow when you tap it and the top will be golden brown.
  • Let the loaf rest in the pan for about 15 minutes, then remove.
  • Let cool completely before cutting.
