New page

== Ingredients ==
* 170g self-raising wholemeal flour
* 170g plain flour
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
* 290ml buttermilk

Note: I have made this successfully using wholemeal flour instead of self-raising wholemeal flour. Perhaps the quantity of bicarb should be slightly increased?

== Method ==
* Preheat the oven to 200°C.
* Tip the flours, salt and bicarbonate of soda into a large mixing bowl and stir.
* Make a well in the centre and pour in the buttermilk, mixing quickly with a large fork to form a soft dough. (Depending upon the absorbency of the flour, you may need to add a little milk if the dough seems too stiff but it should not be too wet or sticky.)
* Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead briefly.
* Form into a round and flatten the dough slightly before placing on a lightly floured baking sheet.
* Cut a cross on the top and bake for about 30 minutes or until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Cool on a wire rack.
