How to Make Longhorn Steakhouse Bread

To make this bread, you need a combination of white flour and wheat flour. What sets this bread apart from other breads is that it also has whole grains of different kinds in it.

I wound up using whole quick-cooking oats and ground flax seed and it gave it the perfect texture and taste.

Once you get the ingredients in your KitchenAid stand mixer, use the dough hook and mix the dough well.

Now, transfer it to a clean bowl, cover it, and let it rise until doubled in size. Once the dough is doubled in size, remove it from the bowl and shape it into the loaf size you are looking for.

Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, cover, and let it rise until doubled in size again.

Now bake in a 350-degree oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

Let it rest for at least an hour before slicing.

Serve with your favorite dinner or just be like me and eat it as a snack!

Very dense bread, poor rise. Used brand new bag of King Arthur AP flour and Bob's Red Mill whole wheat flour. Brand new jar of Fleischmann's active dry yeast. Followed the recipe. I live on the Atlantic coast. I made other loaves of bread same day which raised as expected.

I am sorry you had issues with the bread. I have made this several times and it always turns out perfectly.

I'm having same issue, bread not rising, it's been 45 mins and nothing. My kitchen is warm,as I was cooking homemade shepherds pie and I followed directions to the "T". Baffled

@Jennifer Sikora, it's finally starting to rise!!!!

@Jennifer Sikora, The dough smelled exactly like Longhorns hot bread when I covered to rise.

@Jennifer Sikora, I used fast rising instant yeast, expires 4/15/2026. Is this the issue?

Check your yeast. Sometimes it's the yeast being old.

Can this be made in a bread machine?

Saturday 21st of June 2025

You can knead it and let it rise in the bread machine but when it comes to shaping and cooking it should be done in the oven.
