Honey Oatmeal Machine Bread

Honey Oatmeal Machine Bread
1 1/2 cups water
1 Tablespoon oil
2 Tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon salt
scant 1/4 cup skim milk powder
1/4 cup oats
2 Tablespoons wheat germ
2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons yeast
pinch ground ginger (optional) 

Place all ingredients in bread machine pan in order given, or according to manufacturer's instructions for whole wheat cycle. This makes one small (one pound) loaf, although size setting will depend on machine. 

When I made this the flavor was good, but the dough was a little too liquidy, more like a batter bread. I tried to save it with more flour, and the flavor was good, the rise just wasn't as great. Here is the revised recipe, which should work fine, but keep an eye on it during the mixing cycle. If it's still too liquidy, add a little extra flour. This is a hearty, tasty bread.
