Quick and Easy Homemade Bread- really!

This bread is as quick and easy as a batch of cookies! No rising, no yeast, no kneading... and it's delicious! Not to mention healthy and whole grain. It literally took me 30 minutes total to make. Start to finish. Plus the ingredients are so simple most of us have them all on hand. Gotta love that!


Oatmeal Whole Wheat Quick Bread


1 cup rolled oats
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup milk

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees
2. Grind oatmeal in a food processor or blender.  In a large bowl, combine oatmeal, flour, baking powder and salt.  In a separate bowl, dissolve honey in oil, then stir in the milk. Combine both mixtures and stir until a soft dough is formed.  Form the dough into a ball (I had to add a bit more flour) and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet.


3. Bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes (my loaf needed about 5 minutes more), or until bottom of loaf sounds hollow when tapped.



I found this great recipe on New Nostalgia; what a cool blog!! She has a lot of homemade cleaning products, great recipes, and lots of ways to save money. Worth checking out!

taste good but too dense for us. Quick and easy to make, especially w kids. But will stick to a more traditional recipe in the future.
