Quick & Easy Honey-Oat Bread with Sage Butter (but without the spent grains from the honey-sage beer you just brewed)


Hot loaf of quick and easy honey-oat bread

This is the fastest, easiest bread I have ever made. Seriously, it might be easier to make it by hand than it is to dig your bread machine out from the back of the cabinet. One bowl, one spoon, zero kneading.

Best of all, it's a yeast bread that goes from start to finish in a little over an hour (assuming you're not stopping to take photographs of every step). The trade-off is that it is a little heavier than your traditional loaf. I'm guessing it might not be great for sandwiches, but it is fantastic for eating half the loaf while it's still hot out of the oven. Correction: we ate 3/4 of the loaf while it was hot, but what was left the next day was excellent for sandwiches.
