    Hi there!
    I'm in the process of baking this bread but I have a question... Do I drain the rolled oats or do I add the milk to the mixture too?
    Thanks in advance

      Hi Cristina,

      You are to add the rolled oats and milk into the mixture. Thanks for bringing this up and I really appreciate it, as it enabled me to clear up vague instructions. I have already amended the instruction in the blog. Thanks again.
