Crispy crusty,  moist, sliced easily. I had a slice with peanut butter on after running 😋.  OH had a slab with butter on and gave it the thumbs up.  Had some with my chicken stew

I had two slices the day after with a banana and it was good  I think it will make  good toast
I have a recipe off the same blog but with 100% oats which I am going to try
 
It’s here

I used porridge as I had no groats 😁

Made a 100% oat loaf yesters.  With walnuts, egg, bicarb as leaven, big tub of yogurt   Not really a bread
. No kneading, just bung in tin and bake til it reached 94 degrees

It had to be left til the following day.  It’s not my fave but it’s filling 😁. Had some with stew and it was ok
Nice and moist.  It had no salt at all but it could have done with a bit I think

It does look a tad heavy, almost cake if you had added some sugar to it  :)

Oat meal contains very little gluten, which means it won't rise very well even with yeast. What you made appears to be a sort of soda bread, the bicarbonate would react with the yoghurt to make it rise. To make it lighter, either substitute some of the oatmeal with bread flour, and replace the bicarbonate with yeast. Or use the same ingredients, but substitute some of the oatmeal with plain flour.
We come from the earth, we return to the earth, and in between we garden.

I deliberately made it from 100% oats - no flour and no yeast   It’s an oats and walnut loaf

I toasted some breakfast with peanut butter and banana.  It was very good and filling.  It sustained me well on my dog walk.

My husband likes it ! 😃

My first dark rye loaf!  It’s a bit weird this flour as it doesn’t rise much and you don’t knead it.  So, now blowsy, comfort pillow bread 😁. Most of the flippin seeds fell of the top but never mind.   you have to wrap it in a tea towel while it cools

Anyway first slice, chewy but OMG how tasty ! 👍😋  This is deffo slow bread but I don’t mind that. Can’t wait for lunch 🥗

I use rye myself but with white flour so its a bit texture i also line my tins with oil and the rye flour to give me a crunchy outside .

i make my bread usually in a mixer but to day i did it by hand and it was so much better so fluffy .

I forgot about the flour to line, and my old tin is sticking a bit. I think it’s time for a new one 🙂

I made the oat bread recipe off here today.  I started it yesterday tea time but it failed to rise so I,left it overnight and this morning it seemed a dead loss. I was busy so it got left all day.  It started to bubble about fourish 🙄 it was fresh flours too   Left it another two hours on the second prove, and it still looked quite flat
Fortunately it rose in the tin.  Because it was so slow the flavour was excellent.  It’s flippin yummy 😋😋😋
