Wholegrain Soda Bread

Adapted from How to Make Bread by Emmanuel HadjiandreouAlthough the original recipe said to let the oat and milk mixture sit overnight, if you want to bake the bread sooner rather than later, you could warm the milk and pour it over the oats and dried fruit and let them sit until softened, which will take under an hour. Then add the lemon juice and other ingredients to mix up the loaf. I made the loaf once like this and found it was denser than the loaves made letting it sit overnight, but that may have been because I was also playing around with different quantities of the other ingredients. (I was fiddling with the metric and imperial conversions in the original recipe, which were somewhat different than mine.) Feel free to use another dried fruit, dicing them into pieces that are the same size as raisins.
