Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 9-inch x 5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Grease the paper and sides of the pan with oil spray. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whish the dry ingredients: oat flour, baking powder, and salt.
Stir in sparkling water and dairy-free milk until the batter is smooth and runny - it won't be thick.
Pour into the prepared pan, sprinkle extra rolled oats on top if you like.
Bake in the center rack of the oven for 50 minutes or until hard and dry on top. Insert a toothpick in the center. It should be slightly sticky but not that much.
Stop the oven, keep the pan in the oven, keep the oven door open, and let the bread cool in the oven for 15 minutes.
Transfer the bread to a cooling rack and let it cool overnight at room temperature before slicing.
Notes
Note 1: Baking powder can be replaced with a teaspoon of baking soda, but watch out, the flavor is lightly bitter, and the crust turns greenish.Note 2: The salt is optional. Skip it if preferred.Note 3: Any plant-based milk works, like oat milk, almond milk, or seed milk.Storage: This bread stores well at room temperature, unsliced, wrapped in a clean kitchen towel, and sliced as needed. Keep it fresh for up to 4 days at room temperature. After that time, it hardens. Freeze the slices in an airtight container, if desired. It keeps in the freezer for a month.
