Step 1.
Heat the oven to 230°C. Put a baking tray onto the middle rack of the oven.
Step 2.
Sift both flours, salt and bicarbonate of soda into a large bowl, then mix together. Make a well in the centre and pour in the buttermilk. Stir the dough together until no pockets of flour remain.
Step 3.
Spoon onto a large piece of baking parchment. Using wet hands, gently pat into a uniform round. Scatter the oats on top and gently pat them all over the loaf.
Step 4.
Transfer the dough to the preheated tray. Bake for 45-50 mins until golden brown all over. Allow to cool for at least 30 mins, until just warm, before slicing into it.
