About Bread, oat bran
Oat bread is a wholesome bread made with oats or oat flour, usually alongside wheat flour to give the loaf enough structure to rise well. The oats lend a mild, nutty-sweet flavor, a hearty, moist crumb, and often a rustic topping of rolled oats on the crust. With a long tradition in Britain and especially Scotland, where oats have long been a mainstay of the national diet, it remains a popular wholesome choice.
Because it contains oats, the bread supplies fiber, including the soluble fiber beta-glucan that supports heart health, along with protein and B vitamins. Oat bread makes excellent toast and sturdy sandwich slices, pairing well with both sweet spreads like honey and jam and savory toppings. It is widely sold and also a satisfying loaf to bake at home. Soaking the oats before mixing gives a softer, moister crumb.
Choose a hearty, whole-grain loaf for the most fiber and flavor, and store oat bread wrapped at room temperature, or slice and freeze it to keep it fresh.
