Notes

  • Use certified gluten-free rolled oats for a gluten-free version.
  • Substitute cottage cheese with blended tofu for a dairy-free alternative.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid a dense loaf.
  • Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling.
  • Store bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze slices for up to 3 months.
