Where to find ingredients
Ingredients like whole wheat flour, rolled oats, flaxseed, wheat germ, vegetable oil, brown sugar, salt, and yeast can typically be found in the baking aisle of most major supermarkets. Specialty items like wheat germ or flaxseed might also be in the health food section. If you can't find fresh yeast, active dry yeast can be substituted (use about half the amount and activate it in the warm water first).
Preparation method
- In a large bowl, dissolve the fresh yeast in the warm water
- Add the brown sugar and mix well
- Add the vegetable oil, salt, rolled oats, wheat germ, and flaxseed
- Gradually incorporate the whole wheat flour, mixing until a homogeneous dough forms
- Add more all-purpose flour, little by little, until the dough no longer sticks to your hands but is still soft
- Transfer the dough to a clean, floured surface
- Knead the dough vigorously for about 10 to 15 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic
- Place the dough in a lightly greased or floured bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in volume (approximately 1 to 2 hours)
- After rising, shape the bread as desired
- Place the shaped loaves on a greased and floured loaf pan or one lined with parchment paper
- Cover the loaves again with a cloth and let them rise for another 30 to 60 minutes
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F)
- Bake the bread in the preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for approximately 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through
- Baking time may vary depending on the oven
- Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before serving
