Ingredients & Quantity (3 Main Ingredients)

✔️ 1 cup (120 g) oat flour OR blended rolled oats
✔️ 2 large eggs
Optional:
– 1–2 tsp zero-calorie sweetener (erythritol or allulose)
– Pinch of salt
Instructions
1. Prepare batter
In a bowl, whisk the eggs.
Add milk and mix well.
Add oat flour and mix until smooth.
2. Rest the batter
Let the mixture sit 5–10 minutes so the oats hydrate and thicken.

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Pour mixture into a parchment-lined small loaf pan.
Bake for 22–28 minutes, or until firm and lightly golden.
4. Cool and slice
Let cool 10 minutes.
Slice and enjoy warm or chilled.
Origin & Cultural Significance
Milk-based breads are beloved in many cultures, especially across Asia and Europe, where soft, lightly sweet breads symbolize comfort and nourishment. This simplified sugar-free version honors that tradition while adapting it for modern health needs, particularly for those managing blood sugar or seeking low-calorie options.
Description
The result is a tender, moist, lightly sweet bread-like dessert with a soft crumb and mild flavor. It can be eaten plain, toasted, topped with berries, or turned into a healthy French-toast-style treat.

Tips for Success
Don’t skip resting the batter—this makes the bread fluffy instead of dense.
Use parchment for easy removal.
Adjust texture: Add a little more oat flour if batter feels thin.
For extra softness, replace ¼ of the oats with 1 tbsp cornstarch.
Bake until just set to prevent dryness.
