	Oatmeal 06

		Honey Oatmeal Bread 2 cups boiling water 1 1/2 cups rolled oats 2 tsp salt 1/4 cup honey 1 package active dry yeast 1/4 cup warm water 1 tsp sugar 1/4 cup wheat germ About 5 cups unbleached white flour Pour the boiling water over the rolled oats in a large bowl. Add the salt and honey and cool to lukewarm. Dissolve the yeast with the teaspoon of sugar in the 1/4 cup warm water. When the yeast mixture is bubbling, add it to the cooled oatmeal mixture, then beat in the wheat germ and about half the flour. When the mixture is shiny and elastic, work in as much more flour as you need to make a dough you can handle. Knead until the dough is smooth and springy. Allow to rise until doubled in bulk, knead down, and shape into loaves. Allow to rise in greased 8x5-inch pans until double again. Bake at 375F about 50 minutes. This recipe may be doubled or divided. Makes 2 loaves.
