sesame seeds (to put on the bottom of the bread)
melted butter

 
Directions:
Combine yeast, water, sugar and salt and stir until dissolved then add oatmeal.  Stir  flour into yeast mixture until blended.  Keep working flour into the dough until it is not too sticky and will, somewhat, hold its shape.  Do not knead.  Cover and allow to rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.  Remove dough from the bowl and form into 2 rounds.   Place each ball of dough on an oiled cookie sheet that has been sprinkled with sesame seeds where the bread will be placed.  Allow to rise for about 15 minutes.  Brush the top with melted butter.  Bake in a preheated oven at 425 (220) for 10 minutes, then reduce heat and bake at 375 (190) for 20 minutes.  Remove from oven and brush again with butter.  (I usually don’t brush with butter the 2nd time)

Chewy Caramel Popcorn Balls (Priscilla)

Ingredients
  • 3 (3.5 oz) bags natural microwave popcorn popped ** see note
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed
Instructions
  1. Place popcorn in a large bowl. I like to divide mine between 2 bowl for easier mixing.
  2. In a sauce pan, combine brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup. While stirring, bring mixture to a boil and add condensed milk.
  3. While stirring, bring to a boil again and boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and pour over popcorn.
  4. Mix popcorn to even coat with the caramel. Place a big spoonful of popcorn on a piece of plastic wrap. Fold plastic wrap over the popcorn and shape into a ball. This makes it easy to shape and covers the caramel popcorn balls.
  5. Repeat with remaining popcorn.
Notes
You can pop ½ cup of kernels.
