Raisins & Oats bread

A variation of my previous post, Super easy bread. This time I used oats and raisins to give the bread a nice bite to it. It worked very well.., just as I wanted. :D Every mouthful I could tasted the sweet raisins and feel the bits of oats.

Toasting and spreading a nob of butter really brings out the flavour. Yum yum yum..., baking those breads really makes me realise again how much I love making breads!
