- Soak the rolled oats in a little of the lukewarm water, dissolve the starter in the rest of the water and combine everything in the large bowl.Making it from scratch? See bread & sourdough — rises 2 to 12 h
- Add the wheat flour and most of the seeds, keeping a handful for the top, mix until even and rest 30 minutes.
- Add the salt and knead about 10 minutes with stretch-and-folds until supple and the seeds are evenly distributed.
- Cover with a towel and let rise 4 hours at room temperature until clearly risen and airy.
- Place the dough in the buttered loaf pan, brush the top with water, sprinkle with the reserved seeds and let rise 2 more hours somewhere warm.
- Preheat the oven to 220 °C (425 °F) and bake 45 min until golden, then unmold and cool on a rack.
