If using a bread machine, start with yeast, then vegan sugar or syrup. Add rest of dry ingredients reserve 1/2 cup white flour. Add water. With this loaf you'll initially need it a little wetter because the oatmeal absorbs some of the water as it is kneaded. keep an eye on it during the first kneading and adjust as necessary with the extra flour as necessary.
FYI: This vegan bread is great toasted in the morning with peanut or margarine, and it makes a great raisin bread, too. Add raisins at the last couple minutes of the final kneading. Also, you can add wheat germ too pump up the nutrition. Try a 1/4 cup. Enjoy!
