In a medium bowl, mix warm water, honey, molasses, and dry active yeast

Add in melted butter, 1 and 1/2 cups of bread flour, whole wheat flour, salt, and cocoa powder. Mix until a smooth dough has formed, then knead for 7-10 minutes. Add in additional bread flour as needed while kneading until dough is smooth.

Transfer dough to a clean bowl, cover it and let it rise until it doubles. It will take about 1 hour. Remember to leave in a warm spot.

Mix together egg and 1 tbsp water, set aside.

After the first rise divide dough into 2 pieces. Using your hands or a rolling pin, open each piece in a rectangle. Roll into a cylinder and pinch to close.

Brush dough with egg wash and roll the tops of the loaves in oats.

Place in a lined baking sheet, cover and let rise for 1 more hour or until loaves almost double, and look puffy and light.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Uncover loaves and bake them for 30 to 35 minutes.

Let loaves cool for 15 minutes before slicing.
