Bread not always a success

My bread had been getting better! But it couldn't last. I had been shopping for new ingredients and I had decided I should try oats. You get these on bread all the time! But when I did (I threw quite a lot in) it became clear the oats are for ON the bread, not IN. The loaf was not a loaf but a crumbly mess! Oh dear. So the oats will have to be eaten as porridge. And I'll be back at using the more conventional ingredients like sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds!
