Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 c Boiling water
1 c Rolled oats, quick or
-old-fashioned
1/2 c Sesame seeds
1 pk Active dry yeast
1/2 c Warm water (105-115'F.)
1/2 c Tightly packed dark brown
-sugar
1/4 c Butter or margarine, melted
2 ts Salt
1/2 c Whole wheat flour
4 1/2 c Unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tb Ground cinnamon

In large mixing bowl, combine boiling water and rolled
oats. Place sesame seeds in small fry pan. Toast over
medium heat, stirring frequently, until seeds are
golden, 3-5 minutes. Stir seeds into oat mixture.

In mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water; add
brown sugar, and let stand 5 minutes until yeast
bubbles. Stir in the butter, salt and cooled oat
mixture. Add whole wheat flour and beat in the
all-purpose flour until mixture makes a stiff dough.
Let rest 15 minutes.

Turn out onto lightly floured board and knead for 10
minutes, until smooth and satiny. Wash bowl, grease
it, and add dough to bowl; turn over to grease top.
Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Punch dough down and divide in half. Roll each out to
make a rectangle 8x12"; sprinkle each half with half
the cinnamon. Roll up tightly. Seal seams and ends.
Grease two 8-1/2x4-1/2" loaf pans. Let rise until
doubled, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Heat oven to
375'F. Bake until loaves are golden and sound hollow
when tapped, 30-35 minutes. Remove immediately from
pans. Cool on wire racks.

Makes 2 loaves; serves 24.
