Name: Maple-Oatmeal Sandwich Bread
Yield: Makes 1 loaf
Ingredients: 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons warm water (105°F to 115°F); 1 large egg; 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature; 1/4 cup pure maple syrup (preferably grade B); 1/2 teaspoon maple extract; 2 cups unbleached all purpose flour; 2 cups whole wheat flour or white whole wheat flour; 1 cup old-fashioned oats; 1 teaspoon salt; 2 teaspoons quick-rising yeast

A hint of sweetness makes this perfect for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. It's great toasted, too.

INGREDIENT TIP:

Grade B maple syrup is darker in color and richer in flavor than the delicate Grade A, so the maple taste holds up in baked goods.
