Like others said, you cannot travel back on OPT EAD without a valid F1 visa. EAD doesn't allow you to travel to US, only visas or travel permits like Advance Parole do allow to travel back.
Since OPT is associated with F1 status, once you go out of the US, you have to apply for F1 visa with the evidence of your job offer and OPT card. How likely you'll get the visa is another thing. Even though you are legally allowed to get a F1 visa, its all up to the CO and i doubt they will grant you a visa. I suggest you find a way not to travel.
