Cooking Tips

• You can cook the quinoa and oats in advance and store them in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• For a slightly sweeter bread, you can add a tablespoon of maple syrup or brown sugar to the dough.
• To check if the bread is done, tap the bottom of the loaf. It should sound hollow.
• For a crustier bread, you can brush the top of the loaf with egg wash before baking.

Storage and Serving

• Once the bread is completely cooled, slice it and store in an airtight container.
• You can toast the bread for a crispy texture or enjoy it as is.
• Serve the quinoa oatmeal bread with butter, jam, or your favorite spreads.
• This bread is great for sandwiches or as a side with soups and salads.
• To extend the shelf life, you can freeze the bread slices in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
