Combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.

In another bowl, whisk together molasses, brown sugar, milk, melted butter, and eggs until smooth.

Add the soaked oats to the wet mixture and stir to combine.

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
