Ingredients

  • 170g wholemeal flour
  • 170g self-raising flour (or plain flour with 1 1/2 tsp baking powder)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 290ml buttermilk

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 40 minutes or until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Cool on a wire rack.
