Directions
Make the Levain or Sourdough Starter combine the water with the sourdough starter and the flour, mix all the ingredients well and knead the dough for about 1 minute on your working table, until it comes together, then place it in a clean jar and cover it with a lid.

When your levain is ready, place all the ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer. Use the hook attachment to knead all the dough for about 20 minutes or until the dough is soft and a little elastic. This dough won't be as elastic as other doughs because of the addition of spelt flour.
Take the dough out of the bowl, shape it into a ball and place it in a greased proofing container. Cover the dough with a lid and place it in a warm place to proof for about 4 hours.
Divide the dough in 3 equal pieces, use your hands to shape the dough in 3 balls of dough. Place the dough inside a pullman non stick bread pan. Cover the dough with a lid and let the dough proof in a warm place for about 2 hours or until the dough reaches the rim of the pan.
Brush the dough with egg wash and sprinkle some oats on top of the dough. Bake the bread in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 180 degrees Celsius. For about 30 minutes or until the bread is golden brown.
