Absolutely wonderful! We love the slight chewy texture from the oatmeal. During this global pandemic we have been baking our own breads. This is a five star winner!

No way this recipe is a 5 star; it's for sure a 10 star. What a great sandwich bread and making on the ABM dough setting then taking out to shape and allow for a 2nd rise made for a soft crumb, with a hint of sweetness that makes for a wonderful sandwich bread. As always Donna with your bread recipes - it's the BEST.

Wonderrful loaf. I used the dough cycle on my bread machine & formed the loaf to bake in a pan in the oven. It was half gone before it was even cool enough to cut properly. I may add some chopped toasted hazelnuts or pecans next time I make it. Thanks Donna!

Thanks so much Donna for a great recipe. Made four mini loaves last week . . . that way I can fit a couple in my little freezer for later use!

This was very good bread, I doubled the recipe and it worked fine. It was pretty cold in my house the day I made it so it took about 5 hrs. to rise but it was well worth the wait. Thanks for this recipe, Dan
