Preparation
Step 1
Warm the water slightly - this helps the yeast activate faster. Sift both types of flour through a sieve to aerate them. This makes the bread lighter and fluffier. Don’t use only oat flour - the wheat flour gives the bread its structure and elasticity.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine both flours and add the fresh yeast. Rub the yeast into the flour with your fingers until it becomes crumbly. Reserve a little flour to add later if the dough feels too sticky.
Step 3
Add salt to the flour mixture, then pour in the warm water. Start kneading. At first, it may seem too wet, but the dough will gradually thicken.
Step 4
Continue kneading well until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 5
Form the dough into a round ball and place it in the bowl. Cover with a towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours. You can grease your hands with a little vegetable oil to make shaping easier.
Step 6
After an hour, the dough should have risen noticeably. Punch it down to release air and form a new smooth ball.
Step 7
Place the dough directly on a baking tray lightly greased with vegetable oil. Cover again with a towel and let it rise for another hour.
Step 8
The dough will rise even better this time. Make several slits on top with a sharp knife - this prevents the crust from tearing during baking. Brush the top with water for a crisp crust. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 10 minutes, then lower the temperature to 390°F (200°C) and bake for another 30 minutes. Adjust based on your oven.
Step 9
The finished bread will be golden and crusty on all sides. Remove from the oven and wrap it in a towel to cool. Serve slightly warm or fully cooled. Enjoy your homemade bread!
