Whole Wheat Oats Bread is dense bread that my daughters went crazy about it.
Thanks to Kalyani of Sizzling Tastebuds I tried making a whole wheat bread with oats.
This is not a combo that my girls like, they are bred on the maida or APF bread either store-bought or homemade. In fact, since they liked it I had to repeatedly tell them to save a slice so that I can take pictures.
The plan was to make the bread at around 7 pm just in time for the evening meal. I forgot that I had dough resting in the corner. As a result, I put the dough in the freezer! (How dumb a person can get).
The next day I left it on the counter for an hour and then baked it. the dough never did get the lovely rise of the earlier day and I did not want to experiment anymore. No time, not this month!
Enjoyed the Whole Wheat Oats Bread for now. Will be redoing it soon.

Thanks Shamila
Mayuri Patel says
I've tried whole wheat oats bread and it turns out good. I don't grind the oats, I allow them to soak a bit in the warm milk. I also reduce the quantity of the sugar.
ArchanaPotdar says
I think I will try it this weekend. Your suggestions are definitely to be implemented immediately.
Kalyani says
