Notes
- Buttermilk Substitute : You can use sour cream in place of the buttermilk or try making a buttermilk substitute.
- Applesauce : The bread with sweetened applesauce is slightly sweeter. I prefer using sweetened applesauce but either will work just fine.
- Oats : Quick Oats are recommended in this recipe because of their smaller & finer texture. If wanted, old-fashioned whole oats can be substituted.
- Slicing Tip : If you want clean and pretty slices, it's best to let the bread sit (covered) at room temperature overnight before slicing. But this bread is also really goods served warm!
