Ingredients

• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup dried fruits (such as raisins, apricots, and cranberries)
• 0.5 cup mixed seeds (such as flax, pumpkin, and sunflower)
• 1.25 cups warm water
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 packet active dry yeast
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine warm water and honey, stirring until the honey dissolves. Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, rolled oats, dried fruits, and mixed seeds. Stir until the mixture is well combined.

Step 3

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the yeast mixture and melted butter.

Step 4

Mix the ingredients together with a wooden spoon until a dough begins to form.

Step 5

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 6

Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size, approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.

Step 7

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

Step 8

Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently to remove air, shape it into a loaf, and place it into a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.

Step 9

Cover the loaf pan with the cloth again and let it rise for another 30 minutes.

Step 10

Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.

Step 11

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Slice and serve with your favorite low-sodium toppings or enjoy alone.
