In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and oat flour. Stir in the sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, and flaxseeds.
In a separate bowl, dissolve the honey in the warm water. Add the instant yeast and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes foamy.
Add the olive oil and apple cider vinegar to the yeast mixture.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough begins to form.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is sticky, add more flour, a tablespoon at a time, as needed.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free environment for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf in a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Cover the loaf with a cloth and let it rise again for 15-20 minutes until slightly puffed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
