INGREDIENTS
Dry Ingredients
- 3 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
- 🧂 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup regular rolled oats
- 🥛 2 cups buttermilk
- 3 tablespoons dark molasses
STEPS
Mix rolled oats, buttermilk, and molasses in a large bowl until thoroughly combined.
Whisk together whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar until combined; pour flour mixture into buttermilk mixture and stir just until moistened.
Turn dough out onto a lightly-floured work surface and knead 3 or 4 times until dough holds its shape.
Cut dough in half; pat each half into a 6-inch round loaf. Use a sharp knife to deeply score each loaf in quarters, cutting 1-inch deep.
Wrap each loaf in plastic wrap and allow to stand at least 12 hours at room temperature to ferment. (Loaves can be refrigerated up to 2 more days after this, if desired.)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Place loaves on an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake loaves for 15 minutes and reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Continue to bake until loaves are browned and make a hollow sound when tapped on the bottom, about 20 more minutes.
Allow breads to cool for 10 minutes before slicing. To serve, slice loaves 3/4-inch thick all across the loaf, then cut slices in half.

💡 Plan ahead as the fermentation process takes at least 12 hours.For a richer flavor, consider using blackstrap molasses instead of dark molasses.Slice the bread evenly to ensure a consistent texture throughout each serving.For best storage results, keep the bread wrapped in an airtight container or freeze if storing for more than a few days.
