Preparation

Whisk together warm milk, water, honey, 1/3 cup of old fashioned rolled oats, and active dry yeast. Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.

Next, add in the melted butter, olive oil, kosher salt, one egg, and whisk all the ingredients together. Sift the dry milk powder, bread flour, whole wheat flour, and flaxseed meal through a sieve. Mix the flour mixture with the wet ingredients. Knead the dough for 2 minutes then add one tablespoon of poppy seeds. Continue to knead the dough for 8 minutes by hand or using a dough hook on an electric stand-up mixer.

Remove the dough from the mixing bowl and shape it into a ball. Apply a light coat of olive oil in a medium size mixing bowl and insert the dough. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and put it in a warm place to rise for about 2 hours, or until doubled in size.

Remove the dough from the bowl and gently deflate it. Shape the dough into a 9 inch log. Place the pre-shaped dough into a lightly greased bread pan. Cover the pan with the plastic wrap and let it rise for 60 minutes. When the dough is crowned one inch over the rim of the pan, pre-heat the oven.
