    Swedish Oatmeal Bread


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    2 cups raw oatmeal (Do NOT use instant!)
    Boiling water to cover the oats
    3/4 cup molasses
    3 tablespoons sugar
    2 teaspoons salt
    1 tablespoon shortening
    2 teaspoons anise seed
    1 egg, beaten
    6 to 6 1/2 cups flour
    1 package of yeast

    Recipe



    Cover oatmeal with boiling water. Add molasses, 2 tablespoons sugar, salt, shortening, anise seed, and egg. Add 2 cups of flour and mix well. Soften yeast in 1/2 cup warm water in which you have dissolved 1 tablespoon of sugar. Add enough of the remaining flour to make dough that begins to hold together. Knead for 5 to 10 minutes, until elastic.

    Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp towel, and let rise in a warm spot for four hours (less if using rapid-rise yeast). Punch down, and shape into three loaves. Place in greased and floured pans and let rise for another hour. Bake at 325 degrees for one hour.
