In making the molasses oat bread can I use milk instead of buttermilk? Thank you.
I would think that you can, but it will change the texture and taste of the bread. Buttermilk adds fat which is very important when baking. Thanks!
Has anyone tried to perhaps use any flour other than wheat with this?
Can You use all purpose instead of wheat.
I have not tried it but you should be able to.
I don’t understand…I know what sorghum is and I know what molasses is,sorghum is made from sorghum cane,molasses is made from sugar cane, but I am not familiar with sorghum molasses??????
It is the same thing as sorghum syrup. Some people just call it sorghum molasses.
