Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams whole wheat flour
- 250 grams bread flour
- 10 grams active dry yeast
- 10 grams salt
- 50 grams honey
- 300 milliliters lukewarm water
- 100 grams rolled oats
- 100 grams mixed nuts and seeds (e.g., almonds, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds)
- 100 grams dried fruits (e.g., raisins, cranberries, chopped apricots)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, bread flour, and salt.
Dissolve the active dry yeast in lukewarm water and let it sit for 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Add the honey to the yeast mixture and stir well.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a shaggy dough forms.
Incorporate the oats, mixed nuts, seeds, and dried fruits into the dough.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and allow it to rise in a warm place for about 1 to 1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
After the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air, and shape it into a loaf.
Place the loaf into a greased 9x5 inch bread pan, cover with a damp cloth, and allow it to rise again for about 30 minutes or until doubled.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
