  Recipe by: TASTE OF HOME - OCT/NOV 95 In a small bowl,
  combine boiling water and oats; cool to 110-115
  degrees. In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm
  water. Add sugar, butter, salt, egg, oat mixture and 2
  cups of flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining
  flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured board;
  knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 min. Place
  in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover
  and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30
  min. Punch dough down and press evenly into a greased
  13x9x2" baking pan. With a very sharp knife, cut
  diagonal lines 1-1/2" apart completely through dough.
  Repeat in opposite direction, creating a diamond
  pattern. Cover and let rise in a warm place until
  doubled, about 1 hour. Redefine pattern with knife
  tip. Brush with 2 Tablespoon melted butter. Bake at
  375 degrees for 15 min. Meanwhile, combine Parmesan
  cheese, basil, oregano and garlic powder. Brush bread
  with remaining butter, sprinkle with cheese mixture.
  Bake for 5 min. Loosely cover with foil and bake 5
  minutes longer. Serve warm.
