Description

Make your own Copycat Cheesecake Factory Brown Bread at home! Soft, slightly sweet, and topped with oats—just like the restaurant favorite.

Ingredients 

  • 2 cups bread flour
  • 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, unsweetened
  • 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast , 1 packet
  • 1 1/4 cups warm water, 110°F/45°C
  • 2 tablespoons molasses ,
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons Rolled oats, for topping, optional

Instructions

  • In a large bowl or stand mixer, combine warm water, yeast, and honey. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy. Add molasses, brown sugar, oil, salt, cocoa powder, coffee, and flours. Mix until a dough forms.
  • Knead the dough for 8–10 minutes by hand or with a dough hook until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1–1.5 hours or until doubled.
  • Punch down the dough and divide into 2 or 3 equal portions. Shape into small baguette-style loaves. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover and let rise for another 30–45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly brush the tops with water and sprinkle with oats. Bake for 20–25 minutes until cooked through and hollow-sounding when tapped.
  • Let the bread cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with butter or your favorite spread.
