Step 1
In your KitchenAid stand mixer, combine all the flours, cocoa powder, sugar, salt, and yeast. Set aside.
Step 2
Now, mix together the warm water, butter, molasses, and honey. You can do this in a medium-sized bowl.
Step 3
In the middle of your dry ingredients, make a hole so that you can pour the water mixture in. You can do this in the stand mixer bowl with your KitchenAid mixer. Mix until the dough comes together.
Step 4
Take the dough out of the bowl and begin to knead by hand. Do this for 5-8 minutes. If you want though, you can do it in the mixer but I like being able to knead the bread some. You may need to add some flour to your surface for kneading if the dough is too sticky.
Step 5
Take another bowl and oil it with 1 tablespoon of oil. Place the ball of dough inside and roll it around in the oil coating all sides, then cover with plastic wrap and set aside to rise for 2 hours.
Step 6
Divide the dough into 3 pieces. Roll each piece out into about a 9-inch log. Take a baking sheet and line with parchment paper and place the loaves on the baking sheet.
Step 7
Sprinkle a bit of rolled oats on top of each loaf. At this point, you can take a sharp knife and score the top of each loaf. Do not do it deep. Just a slight score is all that is needed.
Step 8
Cover with more plastic wrap and set the loaves aside to rise for 30 minutes.
Step 9
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Step 10
Bake the loaves for 30 minutes. When done, cool on a wire rack.
