oatmeal breakfast bread

Thank you, Natalie of Oven Love, for choosing Oatmeal Breakfast Bread for TWD!  I have dropped a couple of hints in the past that this is one recipe I’ve been itching to make…not only that, but I’m always happy when someone chooses a brekkie thing, as I kinda feel we ignore this section of the book.

I’m pleased to report that this oatmeal bread was everything I hoped it would be!  It’s really soft and nicely spiced, and completely perfect with coffee…you can cut into slices like a bread or bigger chunks like a coffee cake.  I used dried apples and pecans in mine, and baked it the night before (who wants to get up at 5am to do it, especially when it keeps so well?).  I baked a half recipe, and it took a little less time to cook than Dorie indicated for a full batch.  I can’t wait to make it again in cooler weather…a whole recipe next time, for sure!

For the recipe, see Baking: From My Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan, or read Oven Love.  Don’t forget to check out the TWD Blogroll!
