Place water, honey, and butter in small saucepan.
Heat over low heat until mixture is very warm
(120°F to 130°F [49°C to 54°C]).
First place oats, then 5 cups (1.2 L) flour, salt,
and yeast in mixer bowl. Attach bowl and dough
hook to mixer. Turn to Speed 2 and mix about
15 seconds. Continuing on Speed 2, gradually
add warm mixture to flour mixture and mix about
1 minute. Add eggs and mix about 1 minute
longer.
Continuing on Speed 2, add remaining flour, 1/2 cup
(120 mL) at a time, and mix about 2 minutes,
or until dough starts to clean sides of bowl. Knead
on Speed 2 about 2 minutes longer.
Place dough in greased bowl, turning to grease
top. Cover. Let rise in warm place, free from draft,
about 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk.
Punch dough down and divide in half. Shape each
half into a loaf as directed in the “Shaping a Loaf“
section. Place in greased 8-1/2
x 4-1/2 x 2-1/2”
(21.25 x 11.25 x 6.25 cm) baking pans. Cover.
Let rise in warm place, free from draft, about
1 hour, or until doubled in bulk.
Beat egg white and water together with a fork.
Brush tops of loaves with mixture. Sprinkle with
oatmeal. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 30 to
40 minutes. Remove from pans immediately
and cool on wire racks.
