With your mixer on a low speed start to add the dry ingredients a spoonful at a time, alternating with splashes of the warm water until all dry ingredients are incorporated. The dough should be thick but not crumbly, add more or less water to achieve this consistency. This is a free standing dough, so it will need to keep its own shape.

Ball up the dough as much as you can using a wide spatula in the mixing bowl and turn out onto the greased and flour baking sheet. With floured hands lightly shape the dough so that it is as uniformly round as possible. Let rise for 1-2 hours depending on your climate. The dough should about double in size.

When your dough has almost doubled in size, heat your oven to 350 degrees. Again with floured hands lightly reshape into a slightly smaller dome, gently pressing out some of the rise, but do not knead. For a decorative look, brush the top of the dough with olive oil and sprinkle on a mixture of the oats and seeds.
