Quick Whole-Wheat Oatmeal Bread

From Anna Thomas' Love Soup. She says, "The loaf is crumbly at first but becomes less so as it cools down." I just thought it was good!

2 c. whole-wheat flour

2 cups unbleached white flour

4 t. baking powder

1 t. baking soda

1 1/2 t. sea salt

1/3 c. light brown sugar or raw sugar

1 c. rolled oats

1 large egg

3 1/2 T. unsalted butter, melted and cooled

1 3/4 c. buttermilk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease two medium loaf pans. In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients. In another bowl, lightly beat the egg, butter, and buttermilk. Add the wet mixture to the dry one and stir together until just combined into a thick dough. Cut the dough in half. Wet your hands and quickly form dough into two loaves. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Allow to cool 5 minutes in the pan and then remove it and cool on a rack.
