In a large bowl, combine 2 1/4 cups of unbleached flour with baking soda, baking powder, salt, wheat flour, and oats.

-
In another bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the egg and buttermilk.

Pour the milk mixture into the well of dry ingredients and fold until just combined.
-
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead in the remaining 1/4 cup of flour, being careful not to overwork the dough.
-
Divide the dough in half.
-
Shape each half into a round loaf.
-
Using a knife, cut a cross into the top of each loaf.

Dust the loaves with flour and sprinkle with additional oats.
-
Prepare baking sheets (or baking stones) by sprinkling oats to prevent sticking.
