Honey Oat Bread

🍯 Honey Oat Bread (Subway-Inspired) in the Panasonic Mini

🥖 Why This Loaf?

Ever walked past a Subway and thought, “Cor, I wish my kitchen smelt like that”?

Well now it can. This is my take on Subway’s Honey Oat Bread, but made fresh in the Panasonic SD-PN100KXC Mini Breadmaker.

It’s sweet, soft, a little oaty on top—and absolutely perfect for stuffing with meatballs, bacon, or whatever chaos you’re sandwiching today.

🛠️ Ingredients:

• 120ml water

• 1 tbsp olive oil (or butter)

• 2 tbsp honey

• ½ tsp salt

• 90g rolled oats (+ pinch for topping)

• 160g strong white bread flour

• 60g wholemeal flour

• 1 tsp dried milk powder (optional)

• ¾ tsp fast action dried yeast

🍞 Method:

1. Load the pan:

   
   

   Liquids first → salt in the corner → dry stuff → yeast in a flour well.

2. Program your Panasonic:

   
   

   • Menu: Basic or Whole Wheat

   • Crust: Light or Medium

   • Let it work its magic.

3. 
   

4. Optional flair:

   
   

   Sprinkle oats on top after the first knead (around 30 mins in).

⏰ Bake Time:

About 3–3.5 hours. Enough to walk Monty, make some jam, or label your chutney collection.

🥪 Serving Ideas:

• Toasted with bacon and honey mustard

• Packed with meatballs and cheese (Subway, eat your heart out)

• Slathered with butter and a smug grin

🚐 Campervan Bonus:

Warm it in the air fryer inside Vanilla. Eat outside. Brag on Instagram.

💬 Final Slice:

Subway style, John-crafted. Healthier, cheaper, fresher—and your house smells amazing.
