Instructions
How To Make Maple Oat Bread
- Start by warming the water and pouring it into a large mixing bowl. Add the maple syrup, oil, cinnamon, and yeast. Stir a few times and then let the yeast sit for 3-5 minutes. Add the flour to the bowl and then the oats. Mix until a thick dough forms. Cover the bowl with a thin kitchen towel and let it sit in a warm area of your home for one hour.
- Preheat the oven to 375. Oil the bottom of your bread oven. Once the dough has risen, flour your hands and use them to knead the dough into a round mound. Place the dough into the oiled bread oven, cover it, and bake for 30 minutes.
- Carefully remove the bread oven from your oven and remove the lid from it. Your bread should have completely risen and it should be pale in color. Without the lid, return the bread into the oven and raise the temperature of your oven to 475. Bake for 5-10 more minutes until the top of your bread is dark in color.
- Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before slicing and enjoying warm. We love this loaf with a little soft butter and drizzled with maple syrup. Enjoy!
