Cranberry Oat Bread

Labels: { , , }


Ok, I must admit that I am a true bread lover. I could have bread for breakfast I, for breakfast II (yes, I need two breakfasts a day :-) ) bread lunch, afternoon snack and dinner. My husband finds it amusing one who grew up eating rice adores bread so much.
There is a great choice of bread for all the tastes and costs available in Germany. But not many things beat a homemade artisan bread and don't you love the smell of fresh bread right out of your oven?
I first discovered this bread in Heavenly Housewife at From Donuts to Delirium and I was immediately intrigued. You can also find the original recipe from Dan Lepard's cranberry oat bread recipe at Guardian

  • 3 g Cinnamon
  • Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
  • 50 g Unsalted butter
  • 6 g Instant dry yeast
  • Olive oil, for kneading
  1. Put the oats and cranberries in a bowl and add the boiling water. Leave for 15-20 minutes, until the mixture is warm. Spoon the spelt flour, salt, cinnamon and zest into another bowl, rub in the butter, toss the yeast through, then add the oats and berries, and mix well. Leave to stand for 10 minutes.
  2. Oil your hands and a 30cm patch of worktop, knead the dough on it for 10 seconds, then leave for 10 minutes. Repeat this knead-and-rest sequence twice more at 10-minute intervals, then cover the dough and leave for 30 minutes.
  3. Pat the dough into a rectangle, roll up tightly and squeeze, seam-side down, into a large, deep, 19cm-long loaf tin. Or use any loaf pan you have. Leave for an hour until risen by half. Heat the oven to 210C/420F. Brush the top of the loaf with water, press on a handful of oats, cut a gash down the middle and bake for 50 minutes. It will scorch on top, but that's typical for fruit bread.

Wendy, Honey Bee Sweets: Just knead 10 seconds at 10-minute intervals a few times. And wendy, you can use normal wheat flour instead.

I do love my bread - and using cranberries always delights me. I've yet to try spelt- this will have to happen - when we get below ninety degrees. I can tell you love breads because they're always so beautiful.

[Reply]
A Canadian Foodie 27/5/10 14:48

Gorgeous bread, Angie. There is nothing like homemade bread... and cranberries and oats would make this a very satisfying slice, indeed. I rarely make this kind of adventurous bread, but I love to see it and taste it while visiting others!

[Reply]
natural selection 27/5/10 17:00

A perfect wholesome breakfast what more can I say! I think it would also make for an interesting bread pudding, but the problem is there would be nothing left over to make it with! This bread would last a day and half in my kitchen!

Beautiful Angie!
PS

Angie can you recommend some really good kitchen shops in Germany? I bought some nice cooking implements in Cologne a few years ago and will be back this summer possibly.

Stella 28/5/10 22:24

Hey Angie, that's funny. I grew up eating bread, and I'd prefer a bowl of whole grain rice over it any day! This bread is beautiful though. That last photo really shows the wonderful texture and color...

I was weaned on rice too, but must admit I prefer bread or even noodles. Funny isn't it? This is a gorgeous recipe though I could be biased because I do love both oats and cranberries!

I LOVE bread too! I especially like the addition of dried cranberries instead of the traditional raisins and oat combination here. I like cranberries better actually, so this sounds very good.
