Ingredients

12 servings

1 cup rolled oats
1.250 cup water
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp honey
1 ½ tsp fine salt
2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 standard packet)
Ingredient note
Low histamine diets often flag yeast because of its association with fermentation, but baker's yeast is a fresh cultured leavening that does not carry the pre-formed histamine of aged or fermented foods, and the small amount used to raise dough adds little. It is likely fine here. If you prefer to always avoid active dry yeast, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for kneading

For finishing

1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted, for brushing
2 tbsp rolled oats, for topping

Instructions

1
Combine 1 cup rolled oats, the boiling water, 2 tbsp butter, honey, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir until the butter melts, then let the mixture stand until cooled to lukewarm, about 20 minutes.
2
Sprinkle the yeast over the 1/4 cup warm water in a small bowl and let it stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
