Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh yeast, grains, and flours at local markets or supermarkets. If fresh biological yeast is unavailable, active dry yeast may be used as a substitute, though exact conversion ratios should be followed.
Preparation method
- In a large bowl, dissolve the fresh biological yeast in the warm water
- Add the brown sugar and mix well
- Incorporate the vegetable oil, salt, rolled oats, wheat germ, and flaxseeds
- Gradually fold in the whole wheat flour, mixing until you have a homogeneous dough
- Add more wheat flour, little by little, until the dough pulls away from your hands but remains 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 spot until doubled in size (approximately 1 to 2 hours)
- After rising, shape the bread into your desired form
- Place the shaped bread into a loaf pan that has been previously greased and floured or lined with parchment paper
- Cover the bread again with a cloth and let it rise for another 30 to 60 minutes
- Preheat the oven to 200°C
- Bake the bread in the preheated oven at 200°C for approximately 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Time may vary depending on the oven
- Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before serving
