For 16 Persons
Category: Vegetarian, Breads
1 pk Active dry yeast
1/4 c Warm water
1/4 c Molasses
4 tb Dairy free margarine
2 ts Salt
1/4 c Brown sugar
2 c Oatmeal (uncooked)
1 c Boiling water
1 c Cool water
2 c Whole wheat flour
2 1/2 c Unbleached white flour
Measure 1/4 cup warm water and stir yeast and 1 tablespoon of the molasses
in the water. Let stand until bubbly.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine margarine, remaining molasses, salt,
brown sugar, oatmeal and the boiling water, stirring until margarine melts.
Add cool water and yeast to above mixture. Beat in 4 cups of the flour, 1
cup at a time.
Turn out the dough onto a floured board and knead until smooth, about 5
minutes, adding more flour as needed to prevent sticking. Turn dough over
in a greased bowl; cover and let rise ina warm place until doubled (about 1
hour).
Punch dough down and divide into 16 equalpieces. Shape each piece into a
smooth ball. Place balls about 2 inches apart on greased baking sheets and
flatten slightly. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled (30 or
40 minutes.)
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven until lightly browned, about 20
minutes.
Note: This recipe can be shaped into 2 loaves and placed in greased 9 x
5-inch loaf pans. Allow to rise until double and bake in a 350 degree oven
about 40 minutes or until bread sounds hollow when tapped on bottom.
