  1. Hi I’ve tried this recipe and am getting stuck at the first fence! I hope you can help me sort out what I’m doing wrong.
    I find it v difficult to actually get the oatmeal – I’m using porridge oats – to boil. It’s almost solid v quickly.
    It sounds and looks a lovely recipe so I hope you can help me.
    Thanks

  2. Hi Mary

    Sorry about the delay in getting back to you but it was a long time ago when I posted this recipe and I wanted to try it out again to make sure it was correct (I don’t trust any food blog – including my own). I’ve just cooked a loaf and everything seems fine. Like you I used porridge oats (I think porridge and oatmeal are the same thing), plus a mixture of white and wholemeal flours (the only shop in town that sells spelt is very expensive). The porridge/water/butter mixture will be very thick, but when mixed with the other ingredients should give you a sticky dough.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks for reading yumblog
