Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh yeast at local bakeries or the chilled dairy section of larger supermarkets. Whole wheat flour, oats, flaxseeds, and wheat germ are usually available in the dry goods or health food aisles of local groceries and markets.
Preparation method
- In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the fresh yeast in the warm water.
- Add the brown sugar and stir well until combined.
- Stir in the vegetable oil, salt, rolled oats, wheat germ, and flaxseeds.
- Gradually incorporate the whole wheat flour, mixing until a uniform dough forms.
- Add more all-purpose flour little by little until the dough pulls away from your hands while remaining soft.
- Turn the dough out onto 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 spot until doubled in size (approximately 1 to 2 hours).
- Once risen, shape the dough into your preferred loaf form.
- Place the shaped loaves into 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.
- Bake the loaves in the preheated oven for approximately 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Baking times may vary depending on your oven.
- Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack before serving.
