How to Make Oat Wheat Bread

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 1 cup whole wheat flour, ½ cup flaxseed meal, and 2 cups all-purpose flour.
  2. Add 1 ½ teaspoons salt, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast.
  3. In a separate bowl, warm 1 ½ cups lukewarm water and dissolve 2 tablespoons of olive oil into it.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon or a stand mixer until just combined.
  5. Cover the bowl and let the dough rest in a warm place for at least 4-6 hours, or preferably overnight. This slow fermentation allows the oats to fully hydrate, resulting in a lighter, fluffier texture.
  6. Gently turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Shape it into a round or oblong loaf.
  7. Place the dough in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  8. Cover the pan and let the dough rise for another 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  9. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  10. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  11. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
