List of Ingredients
Makes 1 loaf
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup warm water
1 envelope dry active yeast
2 teaspoons canola oil
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1-1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1-1/2 cups bread flour
egg wash to glaze the top.
2/3 cup slivered almonds
Recipe
In a blender or food processor coarsely chop oats. Add the boiling water and let
stand until water is luke-warm.
In a bowl dissolve syrup, warm water and yeast. Add oil, salt, oats, and 1 cup
of each flour, beat until smooth, add more flour to make a soft dough.
Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 6-7 minutes until smooth
and elastic.
Place in a greased bowl, turning once so the top is greased too.
Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm place until dough has doubled, about
an hour. If you have a bread machine, you can set it for "dough" and let it do
the recipe to this point.
Punch down dough; turn out onto a floured surface. Shape into a flattened 9 inch round loaf.
Place on a greased cookie sheet.
Brush with egg wash and sprinkle almonds on top, pressing them in a little. Bake at 350 for 30 to 35 minutes.
