SUCCESS TIP
Success Tip: We found from our testing that the same amount of yeast is needed for both the 1 1/2-pound and 2-pound loaves.

TRY THIS
Some of us like sweet, plump raisins in our hot cooked oatmeal. If you do, you'll enjoy raisins in this oatmeal bread. Use ½ cup raisins for the 1 ½-pound loaf or 2/3 cup for the 2-pound loaf. Add them at the Raisin/Nut signal or 5 to 10 minutes before the last kneading cycle ends.
