This turned out to be a sweet and dense bread that would be lovely for breakfast. As the bread gets a bit stale I was thinking this bread would actually taste awesome crumbled up in a stuffing.
I ground up 2 cups of rolled oats in my spice grinder until is resembled course flour. That was added to 2 cups of unbleached white flour, 1 tbsp of baking powder and 1 tsp of sea salt. The wet ingredients were 3 tbsp pure maple syrup, 2 tbsp canola oil and just shy of 2 cups of soy milk. I cut up 12 dried apricots and added them to the flour mixture. The wet was poured into the dry, evenly pured into a loaf pan and baked at 450 in my convection oven, since the big oven doesn't work. About half way through baking I brushed the top with some canola oil for a nice brown top. Altogether it was baked for around 45 minutes . . . I kept checking with a tooth pick until it came out clean.
