TWD: Oatmeal Breakfast Bread

This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie is Oatmeal Breakfast Bread, chosen by Natalie of Oven Love.

I really enjoyed making this bread, and I liked it even more than I didn’t even have to break out the mixer for it! I followed the recipe exactly as it was written without any tweaks, other than I used dried cranberries for the fruit.

My favorite part of the bread was definitely the crusty topping, which is made with brown sugar, cinnamon and chopped pecans. I wasn’t crazy about the bread itself, it was just a little too heavy for me, though it was good and the kids liked it. I’d make it again if they request it.
