Ingredients
- 1 cup of rolled or quick cooking oats
 - 2 ¼ cups whole wheat flour
 - ¼ cup white all purpose flour
 - ½ cup brown sugar, lightly packed
 - 2 ¼ tsp baking soda
 - 1 tsp baking powder
 - 2 tsp salt
 - 1 cup buttermilk, shaken
 - 12 oz of Guinness beer
 - 5 tbsp melted unsalted butter
 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
 
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees fahrenheit.
In a large bowl, combine flours, oats, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix lightly with a whisk until evenly distributed.
Next, add wet ingredients into the center of the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated.
Spray or butter a 9x5x2 ½ loaf pan. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and top with a sprinkling of oats for garnish.
Put the pan into the preheated oven and then immediately turn the oven down to 400 degrees. Bake for 45 minutes. Invert onto a cooling rack and serve warm (with or without more butter!)
