This Honey Oat Wheat Bread is a delightful twist on the classic oat wheat bread, offering a slightly sweeter and richer flavor profile.
Add the warm water to the bread machine pan.
Ensure the water is warm but not hot to activate the yeast properly.
Add the honey, molasses, and salt to the pan.
Layer the ingredients to prevent salt from directly contacting the yeast.
Add the bread flour, whole wheat flour, and oatmeal to the pan.
Spread the flour evenly over the liquid to create a barrier for the yeast.
Make a small well in the flour and add the yeast.
Keep the yeast dry until the mixing begins to ensure proper activation.
Set the bread machine to the whole-wheat setting and start.
Check the dough after a few minutes of kneading to ensure the consistency is correct; it should be slightly sticky.
Once the baking cycle is complete, remove the bread from the machine and let it cool on a wire rack.
Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to maintain its structure and texture.
