Oat Buck Bread

This Oat Buck Bread isn't just a recipe; it's a family favorite! We absolutely adore the wholesome goodness and slightly nutty flavor that the oats and buckwheat bring to this loaf. It's the kind of bread that fills our kitchen with a comforting aroma and disappears quickly once it's out of the oven. Trust us, your family might just fall in love with it too!

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water
  • 2 tbsp butter (softened)
  • 1/2 cups honey
  • 2 cups bread flour
  • 2 cups wheat flour
  • 2 1/2 tbsp dark cocoa powder
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp yeast
  • 1/3 cups old fashioned oats
Instructions
  1. 1
    Place all ingredients in a bread machine in the order listed above and use the dough setting. Start with 1 2/3 cup flour. If it seems too sticky add remaining flour a bit at a time until the dough is not sticking to the sides of the bowl. Dough can also be made using a mixer. Just knead dough with dough hook for about 8-10 minutes on low setting. Kneading by hand: about 10-12 minutes.
  2. 2
    Let it rise for about an hour or until about doubled in size. In the bread maker (most dough settings already allow for this.) Or in a lightly greased bowl covered.
  3. 3
    Prepare 2 loaf pans. Grease bottom and sides well or line with parchment. I used 2 8-1/2 by 4-1/2 by 2-3/4-Inch pans.
  4. 4
    Divide dough into 2 pieces. And shape into loaves. (If you want authentic Outback size, make about 8 tube shaped loaves.) The dough is sticky, so make sure you use a well-floured cookie sheet and plenty of flour on your hands. Place into prepared pans.
  5. 5
    Sprinkle the entire surface of the loaves with oats and then let them rise again until doubled. My dough did not rise above the surface of the pan. Only let rise until doubled.
  6. 6
    Meanwhile preheat oven to 350 degrees.
