Add the warm water, milk, butter, and honey into the bread machine pan.
Sprinkle the salt evenly over the liquid ingredients.
Add the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, and whole wheat flour into the pan in that order. Ensure that the dry ingredients cover the liquid ingredients completely.
Make a small well in the center of the flour, and add the instant yeast into the well. Avoid letting it touch the liquids directly at this stage.
Place the bread machine pan into the machine and secure it properly.
Select the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' setting on your bread machine. Choose a light or medium crust color, depending on your preference.
Start the machine and let it run through the mix, knead, rise, and baking cycles without interruption.
Once the baking cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts as it will be hot.
Turn the bread out onto a cooling rack and let it cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
Serve as desired and enjoy!
