2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup flaxseed
2 cups whole wheat flour

25 g fresh yeast
100 ml vegetable oil

Where to find ingredients
Oats, flaxseed, wheat germ, and whole wheat flour can be found in the baking or health food sections of most supermarkets. Brown sugar and vegetable oil are standard pantry items available in any grocery store. All-purpose flour is also a supermarket staple. Fresh yeast can sometimes be found in the refrigerated section of larger supermarkets or at specialty baking stores or bakeries; active dry yeast is a common substitute and can be found in the baking aisle.
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 is formed
- Add more all-purpose flour, little by little, until the dough no longer sticks to 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 is 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 in 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
- The time may vary depending on the oven
- Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before serving
