Oat Bread in Just 5 Minutes

Introduction
This quick oat bread is inspired by traditional rustic recipes that rely on simple, wholesome ingredients. It’s soft, slightly dense, and naturally nutritious—perfect for breakfast or a light snack.

Ingredients
160 g (1½ cups) rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking powder
Salt to taste
1/3 cup flaxseeds
2 eggs
1 cup plain yogurt (liquid consistency)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a small loaf pan or line it with parchment paper

Place the rolled oats in a blender and blend until they turn into a fine flour

Transfer the oat flour to a bowl and mix in the baking powder, salt, and flaxseeds

In another bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the yogurt and olive oil, mixing until smooth

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until fully combined into a thick batter

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the bread is firm and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean

Let it cool slightly before slicing

Method
This bread uses blended oats instead of traditional flour, making it naturally gluten-friendly (if oats are certified gluten-free). The yogurt keeps it moist, while flaxseeds add texture and nutrients.
