Breadmaker sandwich bread

3 cups bread flour
1/2 cup oatmeal
1 1/4 c water
1/4 c honey
2 Tbsp avocado oil
2 tsp salt
2 tsp  yeast

Wet ingredients, plus salt, at the bottom of the breadmaker. Flour and oatmeal next, slightly mixed. Yeast on top, where the salt and liquids won't affect it.

Use program 1, 1.5lb loaf, light crust setting. When bread is on the last rise (about 1 hour left), punch it lightly, let the top fall. Unplug the maker with about 8 minutes left on the program. Leave for a few minutes, but take out before it cools, and wrap in cloth to let cool fully.
