How to Make Beer And Oat Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Set aside 1 cup of rolled oats for the topping.
  3. In a food processor, grind 2 cups of the remaining oats into a fine powder.
  4. Spread the remaining 1 cup of rolled oats evenly on a rimmed baking sheet.
  5. Toast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through. Let cool slightly.
  6. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the warm water, yeast, and 1 cup of the flour. Let stand until frothy (about 10-15 minutes).
  7. In a large bowl, whisk together the ale, skim milk powder, sugar, and salt.
  8. Add the frothy yeast mixture to the wet ingredients and whisk to combine.
  9. Stir in 3 cups of the flour and the ground and toasted oats.
  10. Gradually add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing until a slightly sticky dough forms.
  11. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, adding more flour as needed to prevent sticking.
  12. Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  13. Punch down the dough and divide it in half.
  14. Shape each half into an 11 x 8-inch rectangle.
  15. Roll up each rectangle tightly, starting from the narrow end, to form a cylinder. Pinch the seam to seal.
  16. Place each loaf in a greased 8 x 4-inch loaf pan.
  17. Cover and let rise for another hour, or until doubled in size.
  18. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  19. Brush the loaves lightly with water and sprinkle with the reserved 1 cup of oats.
  20. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown and the loaves sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
