i work in subway and the honey oat bread is simply wheat bread rolled in a honey oat topping, with four score along it :)

I halved this recipe and am sad that I did. This is the best roll recipe I have ever had in my entire life! Thank you so much. I have no idea what subway bread tastes like since I am a celiac, but they smelled exactly like subway when I walk by it daily, Thank you so much Uncle Bill!

Wonderful! They are sweeter than I expected, but still delicious plain or for sandwiches. I used 3 cups of white flour, 1 cup oat flour (just toss some oatmeal in the blender to make it), and the rest whole-wheat flour.

How long does it last after you make?
