 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1 1/2   c            Whole wheat flour
    1       c            Quaker Oats, uncooked
                         -- (quick or old-fashioned)
    3       pk           Active dry yeast
    2       ts           Salt
    1 3/4   c            Water -- plus...
    1       tb           Water
      1/2   c            Aunt Jemima Syrup
                         -OR- Lite Syrup
      1/2   c            Margarine or butter
    4       c            All-purpose flour
                         -- (less may be needed)
 
   Generously grease two 8x4 or 9x5-inch loaf pans.  In large mixer bowl,
   combine whole wheat flour, oats, yeast and salt.  Heat 1-3/4 cups water,
   syrups, and margarine until very warm (120 to 130 degrees F).  Pour over
   oats mixture; add 2 eggs.  Beat at low speed of electric mixer 1 minute.
   Continue beating at medium speed 2 minutes.  Gradually stir in enough
   all-purpose flour to make a soft dough.  On lightly floured surface, knead
   in enough remaining flour until dough becomes smooth and elastic; about 10
   minutes.  Place dough in large greased bowl.  Cover; let rise in warm
   place about 45 minutes or until double in size.
   
   Punch dough down.  Divide into 2 parts; shape each into ball.  Allow dough
   to rest, covered with inverted bowl, about 15 minutes.  Shape each ball
   into loaf.  Place in prepared pans.  Cover; let rise in warm place about
   1/2 hour or until double in size.
   
   Heat oven to 375 F.  Combine remaining egg and 1 tablespoon water; brush
   over loaves.  Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until loaves sound hollow when
   tapped lightly.  Immediately remove loaves from pans.  Cool on wire rack.
