   Ingredients required
2packages dry yeast
1/2 cup lukewarm water
2 1/4 cups milk, scalded
1/4 cup shortening soft
1/3 cup honey 2 1/2 teaspoon salt
6 - 6 1/2 cups of sifted flour

Instructions for Oat Bread Recipe

   Put yeast in lukewarm water. Pour scalded milk over shortening and honey. Add salt, yeast in oats. Add flour, enough to make a soft dough. Turn out on lightly floured board. Knead until smooth and satiny, about 10 minutes. Put dough in a round Bowl in place in a greased large bowl. Brush lightly with shortening. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in size, about 1 hour. Punch dough down, cover. Let rest 10 minutes. Shape to form 2 loaves. Place in 2 greased 9 x 5 x 3 inch loaf pans. Brush lightly with melted shortening. Cover, let rise until nearly double in size. Bake about 45 minutes. Makes two loafs. For faster rising - put loafs of bread in a cold oven and put a large pan of hot water underneath.
