Directions:
Heat 4 cups water to boiling.
Pour boiling water over cornmeal, wheat cereal and oatmeal.
Cool.
Add yeast to 1 cup warm water and proof.
The yeast is proofed when small bubbles appear on the surface, in about 5 to 7 minutes.

Turn out on well-floured board and knead for 5 minutes.
Dough will still be sticky.
Place in well-greased bowl, cover with damp cloth and place in warm place to rise until doubled in bulk, or until a finger pressed into dough leaves imprint, about 1 hour.
Punch down dough.
Turn out on lightly floured board.
Shape into 4 loaves and place in well-greased 9-by-5-inch loaf pans.
Cover with wax paper and allow to rise in warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 65 minutes, or until loaves test done.
remove from pans and cool on wire racks.
Freeze if desired.
