Oatmeal porridge bread | The Fresh Loaf

I tried making oatmeal porridge bread. Follow Chad Robertsons Tartine #3 Very high hydration, 4 folds over 3 hours form, basket, overnight in fridge bake 500 right from the oven. Very tasty.

going on there! Nice loaves for sure. Personally I would have baked them another 10-15 minutes but I like my bread to be quite dark. I can't wait for a crumb shot.

I agree, But I was worried about the bottom. I sliced one loaf and took it to work, I'll try to get a crumb shot of the other one.

Well done and happy baking

Thanks I appreciate your comment.

I'm a big fan of oat meal porridge bread and yours looks great.

I agree with Danni, i also would have baked them longer, i like dark crusts, but that's completely a personal choice.

Looking forward to seeing the inside :)

Good job,

I was able to get a shot of the crumb, it is now on this blog. Great bread!

Congratulations, looks terrific and I would bet that it tastes even better. Have to try porridge breads from Tartine bread 3 book. My wife likes oats very much, so another reason to try.

Happy baking, Joze

Man, that's a nice-lookin' loaf! How'd you get them oats to stick to the surface?

I did an oat porridge bread after seeing Danni3ll3 and Ru007 post great results. It was VERY delicious! In fact, it was the only bread I've done so far that I just tore hunks of it off to eat with nothing on it. Moist, springy, a nice dark crust and brown crumb. Smelled like Mommy's oatmeal! I couldn't figure out how they got their oats to stick.

I bet you're going to love it!

I just put them in the bottom of my proofing baskets and put the dough on top to proof. No fiddling with trying to get them to stick after they proofed and are ready to go into the oven. I do flour my baskets first with half AP flour and half brown rice flour, then the oats, then the dough. Hope that helps.

The dough is very wet and slack, I just put the oats in the bottom of the basket, floured as well. Placed in the fridge over night, In the am, pre-heated the oven and took right from the fridge to the oven. The oats stayed in place.
