Tuesdays With Dorie – Oatmeal Breakfast Bread
food August 17th, 2010
Here we are. Another Tuesday and another brief-but-dumb post from the ugliest foodiest dude you know.
I used raisins in this bread, although I wish I had used dried cherries or chopped up dried apricots because I’ve never really used them in baked goods and raisins are overdone. The bread is super-soft, probably due to the applesauce/oil base. Tastes great.

I’m not sure if I was supposed to, but I got a nice bready crust on this. I’ve discovered that if Dorie tells me to bake something for 55-65 minutes, I should take it out at 50.
I’ve started taking blog pictures with my iPhone, which does not even provide the quality that my years-old point-and-shoot digital gives; however, it makes the process much easier.

I was thinking the same thing about using cherries. It I ever do it again, I will use something besides raisins. Maybe Craisens.
That iPhone does amazingly well.

Your bread looks great! I really wanted to use dried cherries in mine but the ones I had were a little old and a lot tasteless. Next time …
