Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 °F and grease a loaf pan. Set the pan aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the wholemeal flour, quick oats and salt. Then sift in the baking soda and whisk again.
  • Add in the remaining wet ingredients and stir until combined.
  • Pour the batter into your greased loaf pan and even it out with a spatula.
  • Bake the bread for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the edges are starting to brown.
  • Allow the bread to cool in the pan for a while before removing it and placing it on a wire rack to cool completely. The bread slices best when completely cool.

Notes

*Wholemeal flour is the term used in the UK for wholewheat flour. However, I find that the wholemeal flour here in Ireland is a little coarser than whole wheat flour sold in the US. I've only tried this recipe with wholemeal flour from the UK!
