4. First Rise (Quick)
Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly greased bowl. Cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap. Let it rise in a warm place for 45–60 minutes, or until doubled in size.
5. Shape and Prepare to Bake
Punch the dough down gently, shape it into a loaf, and place it in a greased loaf pan or on a baking sheet. Sprinkle extra oats or seeds on top. Let it rest while the oven preheats.
6. Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
7. Bake
Bake the bread for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
8. Cool and Slice
Let the bread cool on a wire rack for at least 15–20 minutes before slicing. This helps finish the internal cooking and prevents gumminess.
Tips for Perfect Quick Grain Bread
- Use warm water, not hot—too hot can kill the yeast.
- Add your favorite grains: sunflower seeds, sesame, flax, millet, or chia all work well.
- Boost flavor with a spoonful of yogurt or milk in the dough for extra richness.
- For a crispier crust, place a tray of water in the oven while baking.
