This recipe makes a very high-rising loaf that has a tender crumb and crust. It's great for toasting which really brings out the nutty flavor.

1 3/4 cups milk (I warmed it a little in the microwave)
2 tablespoons oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup sugar
2/3 cups oatmeal (I used old-fashioned (not quick or instant)
