Put the flours into a large bowl and add the yeast, sugar, salt and seeds.

For this step you'll need:
- 350g Seed and grain white bread flour
- 100g Very strong wholemeal bread flour
- 10g Easy bake yeast
- 1tsp Sea salt
- 100g Linseeds or sesame seeds

Pour the warm water, oil and youhurt into a jug and mix into the flour. As soon as it is all combined, cover with cling film or a plastic bag and leave it to rise for up to 1 hour.

Gently deflate the dough, and carefully upturn the bowl contents onto a lightly floured surface. It will have lost its original stickiness and will be easier to knead. Knead for 10-15 minutes until smooth.

Shape into a round ball put onto a greased baking sheet and sprinkle with oats. Cover with a bowl, to prevent it forming a skin on the outside and leave it in a warm place until it has almost doubled in size.

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan, 425°F, gas mark 7). When the bread has almost doubled in size, slash down the centre of the loaf with a sharp knife.
