Honey Oatmeal Wheat Bread

• 2 cups Boiling Water
• 2 cups Oatmeal
• 2 cups Milk
• 1 cup Vegetable Oil
• 1 cup Honey
• 2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
• 2 whole Eggs, Beaten
• 1 Tablespoon Salt
• 1 cup Warm Water
• 1 Tablespoon Sugar
• 3 Tablespoons Yeast
• 10 cups White Flour

1. 1. This is a large batch that requires a large mixer (6-quart or bigger). I suggest cutting it in half, however the Amish prefer large batches.
2. 2. Mix boiling water and oats. Set aside for 1/2 hour to cool. Keep the milk next to it for later.
3. 3. In a mixing bowl, combine the oil, honey, wheat flour, eggs, and salt.
4. 4. Start your proof: warm water, sugar, and yeast. Use a 2-cup container or bowl, this baby is active.
5. 5. Combine the milk with the oat mixture ; pour that into the mixer. Pour the proof into the mixer. Add the white flour, 1 cup at a time.
6. 6. The mixing bowl may fill up, so put it on a floured surface and knead to a tacky consistency. Let rise till doubled.
7. 7. Grease and flour 4 large loaf pans. Beat down risen dough. divide into pans, let rise till dough is a couple of inches or so above the pan. (It will rise even more in the oven!)
8. 8. Bake at 325u0b0F for 20 minutes, and then at 300u0b0F for an additional 20 minutes.
9. Enjoy. This doesn't last long fresh out of the oven in my home.
