Quick & Easy Plain Oatmeal Bread

44shares

It’s always a good thing to have a good ol’ plain oatmeal bread recipe in your recipe binder. Sometimes I just don’t want to make at pumpkin or banana quick bread recipe, I just want plain bread! Goodness… and that’s exactly what this delicious bread is… so GOOD!!!!

You’d think by now I could come up with a better adjective, but nope. It’s a simple bread, and it deserves a simple adjective to go right along with it. Enough said.

You will not be disappointed with this recipe. It’s chewy, tasty, so very crumbly, and holds together so well in the toaster. Top with butter, mashed avocado, jelly, cream cheese, or whatever you’d like! Enjoy!

This bread recipe can be changed to make different flavors. Just take the sour cream out of the recipe and replace with mashed bananas, pumpkin, zucchini… the options are endless!

Banana Bread:

Replace yogurt with 2-3 mashed bananas and 1/4 cup coconut sugar. 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips are good too!

Pumpkin Bread:

Replace yogurt with 1 cup canned pure pumpkin and 1/4 cup coconut sugar, 2 tsp. cinnamon, and 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice. 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips are good too!

Zucchini Bread:

Replace yogurt with 1-2 cups shredded zucchini (ring out zucchini in a towel to get out excess water) and add 1/2 cup coconut sugar, and 2 tsp. cinnamon. 1/4 cup chopped nuts is good too!

    I’m trying our your recipe, and I’m just wondering what method you used to mix all of the ingredients… did you stir everything by hand or did you use a stand mixer? Also, is the batter supposed to be really thick or is it more pourable? Thanks!

      Hi! I just use a wire whisk to stir the ingredients together. Also, It’s definitely not thick, but not overly thin either. The longer it sits, the thicker it gets because oats absorb liquid pretty fast.

    I absolutely love your recipes! They are my “go-to” recipes quite often! Looking forward to making this one to toast with dippy eggs in the morning!

    I made this today and made it vegan. Unfortunately I ran out of the egg replacer I’d had for 12 years so had to use ground flax seed for the first time. It did not congeal. Also did not have the soy yogurt I thought I had so found a recipe for cashew sour cream. Even with these adjustments, this bread was fantastic! It isn’t the consistency of store bread, a little crumbliest & denser but I’ll definitely make again. Hubby liked it to! Thank you, I’ve been looking for an easy oatmeal bread recipe for a long time. This is IT.

      Since I created the recipe, I have now gone plant-based. I will have to play with the recipe to make a vegan version!

        I’m so happy to come across your recipe! I’ve been researching healthy bread options. Have you figured out a vegan version yet? I’m sort of new at this and haven’t baked yet using an egg substitute. Was hoping you can give me suggestions. Thank you!

          Absolutely! So I personally don’t use eggs anymore since going plant-based. I add 3 Tb flaxseed meal to the recipe. I typically use the Bob Red Mills brand. You will LOVE this bread! Also, check out my chocolate chip zucchini bread recipe. It’s the same base as this recipe, with using oat flour. I think you’ll love both!

            I also eat plant based. Did you just add the 3 TB flaxseed to the recipe or do the flax with water first? I’m excited to try this recipe!

            I rarely ever make an actual egg replacement with flax seeds and water. I just add the flax seed meal straight to the dry mix.

    What size of loaf pan do you use? How many 8×4 loaf pan will this make?

      This is a single loaf recipe. 8X4 would work perfectly.

    What is the proper way to store this bread? And how long can it last after baked)

      It will last 3-4 days in the fridge, and a few months in the freezer. I store mine in a bread bag in the fridge.

    For your easy Oatmeal Bread. I am not sure what you mean by “oats blended into flour”. Is it 3 cups of flour and eyeball the amount of Oats your blending in? A beginner here that needs clarification. Thank you.

      Measure out 3 cups of oats into a blender. Then, blend the oats into a flour consistency.

      If the batter is too thick, add 1/2 cup of water. Oats are like sponges and absorb liquid fast.

    I’ve been looking for an easy oat bread and tried this tonight several weeks after trying a very disappointing batch of oat scones. This recipe is amazing. So satisfying to eat such healthy bread with butter

    Hi! I’m looking forward to trying this recipe today. Just wanting a clarification, the alternate suggestions for banana, pumpkin, zucchini bread etc. say to replace the sour cream, but there isn’t sour cream listed in the recipe. Does that mean to replace the yogurt? or the milk?

    Reply

      November 16, 2020 at 9:21 am

      I’m sorry. I revised the recipe a few months back. I must have forgotten to change that. I’m sorry. Yes, you could actually use sour cream or yogurt in the recipe, but I like using yogurt best when making this plain bread. Do not replace the milk. It’s needed.

    Just ran across your recipe and am excited to try it, as sort of alternative to my bowl of oatmeal in the morning. I always have blueberries on my oatmeal, would this recipe still work if I add blueberries ?
