Step 1: Activate the Yeast

  1. In a small bowl, mix the warm water, brown sugar (or honey), and yeast.
  2. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until it becomes frothy. This means the yeast is active.

Step 2: Mix the Dough

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, salt, and any seeds or nuts you’re using.
  2. Add the activated yeast mixture, olive oil, and yogurt to the dry ingredients.
  3. Stir until the dough begins to come together.

Step 3: Knead the Dough

  1. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8–10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
    • Tip: If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.

Step 4: First Rise

  1. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1–1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

Step 5: Shape and Second Rise

  1. Once risen, punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf.
  2. Place the loaf in a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan. Cover and let it rise for another 30–45 minutes until it’s puffed up.

Step 6: Bake

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Bake the bread for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.

Step 7: Cool and Serve

  1. 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.
  2. Slice and serve with your favorite breakfast toppings!
