Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan thoroughly.
In a large bowl, combine oats, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, whisk together melted butter, vanilla extract, buttermilk, and Guinness stout. Gradually pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, gently stirring until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, and sprinkle the top with additional oats, if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Then, reduce the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) and continue baking for another 30 minutes. Turn off the oven, crack the door open slightly, and let the bread cool inside for 30 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
