Soda Bread
Ingredients
- 400 mls natural yogurt or buttermilk
- 500 g spelt flour
- 2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1 tsp sea salt Himalayan
- 3 tbsp chia seeds or pumpkin, flax - whole or milled
Servings: loaf
Instructions
- Add dry ingredients to the mixing bowl before stirring in the yogurt with a spoon. You'll need to move quickly with this bread as it doesn't like to be handled, and unlike traditional breads, doesn't require kneading.
- Mix together for a minute or two with a spoon until you have a dough - if it is too dry, add a tablespoon or two of water
- Turn onto a board and shape into a round loaf shape before transferring either directly to a baking stone or floured baking tray
- Flatten the loaf slightly so that it is not domed in the middle, and with a serrated knife slash a cross on the surface (as if going to cut into quarters)
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees C for 40 minutes until golden on top. It should sound hollow if you pick the loaf up and tap it underneath
- Leave to cool on a wire rack.
