Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and all-purpose flour.

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Step 8
Punch down the dough and knead in the sesame seeds until they are well incorporated.

Shape the dough into an oval or loaf form and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
