     1 pk Active dry yeast


   1/2 c  Whipping cream; lukewarm


 3 1/2 c  All-purpose flour

 batter to a lightly greased 9 x 13 inch baking pan. Lightly brush the top


 with remaining 1 tbsp butter and sprinkle with remaining 3 to 4 tbsp of


 oats. Let stand, uncovered, until doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours.


 Preheat oven to 375 F. Bake until the bread is light golden on top, about


 30 minutes. Serve slightly warm. Serves 8 to 10.


 


 Author notes that leftover bread is good fried in olive oil for toast


 fingers.
