Noah Elbers' Maple-Oatmeal Bread (courtesy of farine-mc)
Hello, What a pleasure to discover farine-mc's post on her blog about Noah Elbers and his talented group of bakers, and this bread.
Thank you Farine!!! (Farine-mc's post is here: http://www.farine-mc.com/2011/01/noah-elbers-maple-oatmeal-bread.html [1] - great information on how to make this bread, and video from Mr. Elbers' bakery, too!)
This oatmeal bread is made with cooked steel-cut oats, maple syrup, levain and a poolish. I had to try it!:
These are the weights I used (to make two loaves, 680g each)
(My baker's percentages may not correspond exactly to farine-mc's percentages;
I keep my starter at 100% hydration):

Here's the crumb shot (this bread has a gorgeous flavor, very moist crumb, and a slight sweetness, not definable as maple but still very good):
Happy baking everyone! from breadsong
