Whisk the yeast into 500 ml lukewarm water until smooth. Add the flours and salt to a mixing bowl, pour in the dissolved yeast and oil, and knead with an electric hand mixer’s dough hooks into a smooth dough; add more lukewarm water or flour if needed. Cover and let rise for about 45 minutes in a warm spot.

On a lightly floured surface knead the dough again, incorporating the sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, and sesame. Shape the dough into a long loaf and place it in a greased tin sprinkled with rolled oats. Brush with lukewarm water and top with the remaining oats. Cover and let rise for another 15 minutes.
