Add the water, honey, and olive oil to the bread machine pan.
Sprinkle the salt around the edge of the liquid to avoid contact with the yeast for now.
Add the whole wheat flour, bread flour, and rolled oats evenly over the liquid in the pan.
Sprinkle the dry milk powder over the flour mixture.
Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the active dry yeast.
Set the bread machine to the Whole Wheat setting (or Basic setting if Whole Wheat is not available). Choose a 1.5-pound loaf size and set the crust color preference (light, medium, or dark).
Start the machine and let it complete the cycle, which typically includes kneading, rising, and baking.
Once the bread has finished baking, carefully remove it from the machine and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
Serve sliced and enjoy with your favorite toppings or as a simple side.
