Ingredients

  • 2 (4-1/2 tsp.) envelopes Fleischmann's® Active Dry Yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 3/4 cup warm water (100º to 110ºF)
  • 1 cup quick OR old-fashioned oats
  • 1 cup warm buttermilk (100º to 110ºF)
  • 1/3 cup butter OR margarine, softened
  • 1-1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 eggs

  • 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • Carved roast turkey breast
  • Sharp cheddar cheese slices

Directions

  1. Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water in a small bowl. Set aside for 5 to 10 minutes, until foamy on top.
  2. Combine oats, buttermilk, butter and yeast mixture in a large mixer bowl. Add whole wheat flour, maple syrup, eggs and salt. Beat for 2 minutes until well mixed. Add cranberries. Add all-purpose flour 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition, until dough forms a soft dough.
  3. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead 6 to 8 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to coat. Cover and let rise about 1 hour, until doubled.
  4. Punch dough down and shape into 2 loaves. Place each loaf in a greased 9 x 5-inch pan. Cover and let rise about 1 hour, until doubled.
