Honey Oat Bread is one of my all-time favorite recipes.

It uses a combination of oat flour (make yourself by simply blending oats) and gluten free all purpose flour for a dense, yet moist crumb. If corn becomes cornbread, this is oat's version of oat bread. All I'm trying to say is this bread is over here doing it's own thing.

We love to eat this bread when it's chilly outside. It pairs well as a side for many a hot bowl of soup or chili. My favorite way to serve it is warm with a pat of butter and a drizzle of honey. Yum.

Honey Oat Bread Ingredients:

Gluten free oats, or oat flour. (I use Thrive Market's brand because they're also organic and the cheapest GF oats I can find anywhere. Get 40% off your first order + sometimes a free gift.)
High quality gluten-free all purpose flour containing xanthan gum. I always use Bob's Red Mill GF 1:1 (the blue bag) or King Arthur's Measure for Measure.
Milk, for dairy-free use almond milk
Honey
Eggs
Baking soda
Baking Powder
Salt

How to Make Honey Oat Bread:

Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Grease a non-stick loaf pan with some butter (or cooking spray). Tip: You can also put parchment paper in the loaf pan so you can easily pick the bread up and out of the pan once cooked. Just note that the paper may make some lines/indents on the sides of the bread.
To Make Oat Flour: Meanwhile, pulse about 2 cups of GF oats in a blender or food processor until smooth. For best results; sift homemade oat flour and discard any large pieces of oat. Then, measure oat flour. You need to have about 2 cups of oat flour. Sometimes, depending on the size of the oats, it makes a little less. In this case, simply blend more oats, sift, and re-measure. If you have any leftover oat flour, you can store it in a sealed container in your pantry to use another time.
Add oat flour to a medium-sized mixing bowl along with GF all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir until evenly distributed.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs, honey, and almond milk.
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until well combined. The batter should be relatively thick, like a cake. Allow to rest for 5 minutes.
Using a silicone spatula, spoon batter into your prepared loaf pan. For an artisanal touch; sprinkle some whole oats (not the flour) on top of the bread.

Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the bread comes out clean. Tip: All oven temperatures vary. Please check on your bread as it cooks.
Cool for 10-15 minutes in the pan before removing to a wire cooling rack.
Serve warm with a pat of butter and a drizzle of honey.
