Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup buttermilk or plain yogurt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/3 cup melted unsalted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup raisins or chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine oats and buttermilk; let sit for 10 minutes to soften.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  4. Add egg, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla to the oats mixture; stir to combine.
  5. Fold in oat mixture into dry ingredients until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. If using, gently stir in raisins or nuts.
  7. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Swap buttermilk with dairy-free yogurt or milk for a dairy-free version.
  • Add ½ cup grated apples or mashed banana for extra moisture and flavor.
  • Mix in ½ cup chocolate chips for a sweeter treat.
  • Let the bread cool completely to ease slicing without crumbling.
  • Store wrapped at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze slices for up to 1 month.
