Step 1

Pour the 2 cups of boiling water over the rolled oats mixture. Cool to lukewarm.

Step 2

In a large bowl combine butter, salt, and rolled oats.

Step 3

In a small bowl combine 1 cup of warm water and sugar. Stir in yeast then add to the cooled oat mixture.

Step 4

Mix in molasses.

Step 5

Gradually add flour. (You may need to turn the dough out onto the counter to incorporate the final cup or two of flour.)

Step 6

Place dough into a large, oiled bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rise in a warm place until doubled, 30-60 minutes.

Step 7

Cover with a clean dishtowel and let rise until doubled in bulk (about 1.5 hours, but really depends on how warm your kitchen is).

Step 8

Divide dough into 18 oz portions. Shape into balls, and place onto lined baking sheets.

Step 9

Egg wash and sprinkle with whole oats. Allow to rise 15-30 minutes.

Step 10

Bake 30 minutes at 350°. Remove from oven to wire racks to cool.
