Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 2 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup oat bran (see note)
  • 1/2 cup wheat germ
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats oatmeal
  • 1/2 cup steel cut oatmeal
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ cup honey

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Combine 1 cup white flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, whole wheat flour, oat bran, wheat germ and oatmeal. In another bowl, mix together buttermilk, egg and honey.
  • Pour buttermilk mixture into flour mixture and stir together as lightly as possible just to combine. Turn out on floured surface (if you have a silicone baking mat that is a great surface to put the dough on). The dough will be very sticky.
  • Fold the dough over on itself a few times, adding as much of the remaining white flour as needed to make a dough that is not too sticky. Divide in half.
  • Form into two rounds, tucking the dough under to form a taut rounded top. Place on a parchment or Silpat lined cookie sheet.
  • Cut a cross in the top of each loaf. Prick each quarter once to let the fairies out.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes, rotating the pan after 20 minutes. Internal temperature should be about 190 degrees. Remove to a rack to cool before cutting.
