For a healthy bread option, try my Oat Bran Bread. When buying bread in a store or bakers, I always opt for a brown loaf, something with whole wheat or bran, usually topped with seeds or nuts. Firstly, it’s healthier but more importantly, I just find it tastier!
I like a crisp crust, soft crumb and some extra ingredients for flavor and texture. With this recipe, I’m using a half and half method: half bread machine and half manual. That’s just my preference, I like to get a little hands-on with the dough and always bake it in the oven if I can. But if you don’t have the time, just add the ingredients to the bread machine and choose the Basic or White Bread setting (and skip the other steps) – it will be just as tasty!
To make Oat Bran Bread, you will need the following ingredients:So, how to make Oat Bran Bread?
Add the ingredients to your bread machine drum (the manufacturer may have provided direction on the optiumum order). Choose the ‘Dough’ setting on the machine and press ‘Start’.
While the dough is in the bread machine, preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a loaf tin.
Once the dough has risen once, remove from the machine and knead for 30 seconds to a minute.
Shape the dough into a loaf and press into the loaf tin.
Leave the dough to rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
Bake for 35-40 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave to cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
