Ingredients

• 1.25 cups Warm water
• 0.5 cups Milk
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 2 cups Bread flour
• 1 cups Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cups Rolled oats
• 0.25 cups Sunflower seeds
• 2 tablespoons Flaxseeds
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine warm water, milk, honey, and olive oil. Stir to combine.

Step 2

Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the liquid mixture. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes, or until the yeast becomes foamy.

Step 3

In a separate large bowl, mix together bread flour, whole wheat flour, rolled oats, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, and salt.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

Step 5

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic. Add a little flour if the dough is sticky, but avoid adding too much.

Step 6

Place the kneaded dough into a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

Step 7

Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the shaped dough into a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan.

Step 8

Cover the dough loosely with a damp towel and let it rise again for about 30-45 minutes, or until it has risen about 1 inch above the rim of the pan.

Step 9

While the dough is rising, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 10

Bake the loaf for 30-35 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 11

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
