The ingredients for Laurita's Whole Wheat Oatmeal (bread machine) bread are:

3 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup quick oats, ground in mini food processor
1/4 cup oat bran
1 tbsp vital wheat gluten
1.5 tsp bread machine yeast
2 cups water
2 teaspoons salt
3 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp skim milk power


In bread maker bowl, add water, salt, sugar, oil, milk powder.
Separately, measure flour, oatmeal, bran and gluten and blend.
Add flour mixture to bowl, make a small well in middle of dry ingredients.
Add yeast to well.

Set bread machine to whole wheat bread if baking in the machine. I prefer to bake in oven for more conventional size, so I set for dough.

When dough is ready, knead it down on a floured board. Separate into 2, form loaves and place in greased floured pans. Allow to rise until size has doubled.
Bake in 350 degree oven for 40 minutes.
*Note: bread, especially the yeast component, is influenced by altitude. My recipe works for me at about 3500 feet altitude.
Entire process takes about 3.5 hours.
It is easier to slice home made bread if you let it sit for a few hours covered with a clean cloth. Of course, my husband (or "that guy who sneaks in and steals some of the fresh bread") cannot wait and insists on sawing off a chunk because he can't resist the siren call of bread fresh out of the oven.
