By khovater

This is an easy quick bread that is so good straight from the oven spread with honey butter.

Ingredients

• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 3/4 cup rolled oats
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons oil (I used Canola)

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl using a whisk mix together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, oats, salt, and baking powder. In a smaller bowl whisk together the buttermilk, egg, oil and honey. Combine the two bowls and mix well with spoon. Turn out onto a wheat floured board and knead, adding flour until you have a dough. Spray a 9 x 4 bread pan with cooking spray and add dough. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 40 – 45 minutes. Remove from pan and slice and enjoy with honey butter spread. Makes one loaf.

Honey Butter Spread

1 stick butter or margarine or 1/2 cup

1/3 cup honey

Remove paper from margarine and put in large microwave bowl. Microwave about 12 seconds to soften the butter. Add the honey and beat with electric mixer about a minute until smooth. Enjoy on this bread, biscuits, waffles, and pancakes. Store in refrigerator. Keeps well.
