Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Step 2
Place the oats in the bowl of a stand mixer or into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground pepper and add to the oats. Add the remaining ingredients except 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and mix at medium speed or pulse together until well blended. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beater and mix again for about 30 seconds.
- Step 3
Add 2 tablespoons of the oil to a 9-inch cast iron skillet and place in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and spread the batter in the pan.
- Step 4
Place in the oven and bake 30 minutes, until the top is nicely browned and a tester comes out clean when inserted in the middle. Remove from the heat and serve hot, or allow to cool on a rack.
- Advance preparation: This will be good for a couple of days but then will dry out.

I loved this bread. Like stated in the description, it’s thick and dense like a skillet cornbread. I used a mix of rosemary, sage, and thyme. I just used regular whole wheat flour instead of the pastry type and it seemed to work just fine. No need for a stand mixer either.
You use 2 tablespoons for the batter and 2 for the pan.
Why does this recipe suggest using a food processor or stand mixer? Why not use a mixing bowl, wooden spoon (or better, a Dutch whisk) and a bit of elbow grease?
@Ellen my Kenwood branded hand mixer just on medium level (3-4 out of 5 levels) chopped up the oats nicely. A food processor gives you more oat flour than chopped oats, in my experience of course.
Made this a ‘sweet’ bread by leaving out onions and herbs, and adding 2 packed tablespoons of brown sugar. Didn’t rise like the picture but was delicious with a little butter and honey for our weekend tea time. Was cooked in 25 min. Will definitely make again when looking for a healthy and delicious quick option.
People complaining about another NYT poorly proofed recipe might want to consider how they may or may not proofread recipes. For, if the recipe is not clear, one simply need not make it and can ask nicely for clarification. There is no need to be cruel in your comments. Martha Rose Shulman knows how to turn breads and beans. I’ve made so many scrumptious meals with her recipes.. As one who craves beans and breads, I’m so grateful to her for her research, time and diligence.
