It works! I was making my favorite oatmeal bread and tried it with the rolled oats I like to put on top of the loaf. Rather than use a damp towel (I'm all about simple!) I used my everpresent water bottle and just spritzed the top of the loaf a couple of times (that's two spritzes to cover the loaf), let it stand for a minute then rolled it in the pile of oats on the counter. They stayed on through rising, baking, being put in a plastic bread bag, and most important through slicing and toasting. This is a WINNER!
Great to hear that our tip worked so well for you!-Jon
