Instructions
- Chop the butter and add to the shredded wheat in a bowl. Add about half of the buttermilk. Microwave for about 30 seconds. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, salt and sugar.
- Add the shredded wheat mixture and the remaining buttermilk.
- Mix together, using a light hand.
- Form into a flattened ball (bannock). Do not knead.
- Put on a greased or lined baking tray. Cut a cross on the top, using a serrated knife.
- Put it in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for around 55 minutes.
- Test the doneness of the bread by holding the hot bread in a clean drying cloth and knocking on the bottom of the bread. If it sounds hollow, then it's done. Another test is to push down on the surface of the bread. If it sinks, as if the dough is still wet, then return it to the oven and check every 5 minutes until you get a hollow sound and no sinking texture when the surface is pushed.
