100% Oat Bread with Sourdough

A moist, nutty and slightly sweet loaf bread made with only oats! I used sourdough in combination with a bit of yeast. This is great fro breakfast with butter and jam, or I think it would be perfect for mixing in your favorite dried fruits, seeds, etc.
Note: you will need to mix some of the dough starting from the day before you bake. You will also need loaf pans (see ingredient list).
Makes 2 small loaves or 1 large loaf.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Mix [Oat Sourdough] ingredients well in a bowl. Cover with wrap and let ripen for 12-16 hours at room temperature.
- 2
Mix the [Soaked Oats] ingredients in a separate bowl. Cover, put in the refrigerator and let soak for at least 4 hours up to 12 hours.
- 3
On baking day, in a large bowl, mix the finished oat sourdough, soaked oats, 300 g oat flakes and [A] 200 g warm water, and 2 g yeast. (It's too wet to knead, so I mixed with a rubber spatula). Mix for 5 minutes using a spatula or your bread mixer.
- 4
Add [B] 100 g warm water and continue mixing for about another 5 minutes. Lastly, fold in the optional flaxseed or raisins.
- 5
Grease your loaf pans and dust the sides with some rolled oats. If using two smaller loaf pans, divide the dough into the two pans. If using one large pan, put it all in that. Sprinkle a few oats over top if you like. Cover and let rise for about 1 hour.
- 6
Preheat oven to 250°C/480°F and prepare a steam pan at the bottom of the oven. Pour some boiling water into this pan when you put the bread in the oven.
- 7
Bake for 10 minutes at 250°C/480°F then remove the steam pan. Lower the temperature to 200°C/400°F and bake for another 25-35 minutes for smaller loaves OR 65-70 minutes for a big loaf (or until a wooden skewer or toothpick comes out clean).
- 8
Remove from the baking pans immediately and let cool on a rack. Great served with butter and jam!

Sourdough Beer Bread (Schwarzbierbrot) Sourdough Beer Bread (Schwarzbierbrot)
This is a German-style hearty loaf. The combination of sourdough and dark beer/ale will give you a beautiful, rustic bread with a darker, crisp crust and wonderful aroma. This slow-rise bread also includes sourdough so you will need some wet sourdough starter. With the combo of long rising time, sourdough and beer, this was one of the best breads I've made yet! I might look complicated but it's mostly just mixing things and waiting. Felice -

Sourdough Bread Sourdough Bread
This is a recipe from King Arthur Flour. It comes with the sourdough starter that can be ordered from them as well as finding it online in their website. It is a very good base recipe for making sourdough breads.Maintaining a proper sourdough starter is definitely a commitment. If you keep starter out at room temperature you will have to feed it every day. If you keep it refrigerated like I do, you will only have to feed it once a week to maintain it however you have to remove from fridge and feed it at least 8 to 12 hours before you want to make bread with it. And with both ways; always feed after use.Making a starter from scratch takes a lot of time before you can use for first time. I suggest getting a few ounces of a established starter from someone who has one already or order it from King Arthur Flour.Sourdoughs have different flavors depending on where you live. The sourdough bread I make in New York will taste different than a sourdough made in San Francisco. chris.zurhorst -

California 100% Whole Grain Sourdough Bread California 100% Whole Grain Sourdough Bread
I work with wheat a lot and bake and cook often. However, there was something that scared me about making 100% whole grain sourdough bread. Whole grain flours are different, because they love water and recipes need more water. At the end, you do end up working with dough that is more wet than your normal flours. I have tried this recipe and I lost that fear. I encourage you to try it. Don't aim for perfection, but rather, aim to learn and to enjoy the process, and have fun. Claudia Carter -
German Sourdough Rye Bread (Roggenmischbrot) German Sourdough Rye Bread (Roggenmischbrot)
Maybe on of the most common breads in Germany - this one is heavy, hearty and packed with flavor. The bread has a longer shelf life than others, and you can probably eat it for 4-5 days after baking - if it lasts that long before disappearing ;) You will need some rye sourdough starter/mother (see my "how to make rye sourdough starter" recipe if needed) and time to let the bread rise for several hours. It is well worth it. (photos for the final steps coming soon!)Pre-dough rise time: 16-20 hoursKneading time: 15-17 minutesSecond rise time: 90 minutesShape & final rise: 35 minutesBake time: 55 minutes Felice -

California Farm Soft Crust and Hard Crust Sourdough Bread California Farm Soft Crust and Hard Crust Sourdough Bread
Water, flour, sourdough starter and a pinch of salt, the classic way to bake bread. We bake four french rolls of sourdough bread a week, either white sourdough bread or wheat sourdough bread.I make the dough and replace the sour dough starter Sundays. Depending on the time of year, it takes the dough a few hours or overnight to rise, I bake the bread when dough is ready on Monday morning for breakfast. Eat half a roll, freeze the rest.
