In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour. Create a well in the center.
In a small bowl, mix the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Add the yeast mixture and olive oil into the flour well. Mix until a rough dough forms.
Sprinkle salt over the dough and knead for about 10 minutes on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic.
Add the rolled oats, sunflower seeds, walnuts, raisins, cranberries, and pumpkin seeds to the dough. Knead gently to incorporate them evenly throughout.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (390Β°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Punch down the risen dough to release the air and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
Shape each piece into a ball and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them.
Cover the buns with a cloth and let them rise for another 20 minutes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the buns are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or store in an airtight container for later.
