Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 220C/200C fan/gas mark 7/425F . Dust a baking tray (I actually use a pizza tray) with a little plain flour.
  2. Mix all the dry ingredients together thoroughly. Tip in the buttermilk and stir to combine.
  3. Keep stirring until the ingredients come together as a dough, then squidge together to form a ball.
  4. Place the ball of dough on your baking tray and cut a deep cross in the centre. This is really important as it helps the centre of the bread to cook properly – so cut nice and deep, almost to the bottom.
  5. Decorate the loaf with a few extra pumpkin seeds and place the loaf in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  6. Serve with soup or cheese, olives and cold meats.

Notes

  • Instead of buttermilk you can use 200ml / 7oz regular milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar stirred in to sour it. Alternatively you can use a 50/50 mixture of yogurt and milk.
  • You can make this recipe dairy free / vegan by using dairy free milk instead of regular milk, plus 1 tablespoon lemon juice, apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar.
  • Baking soda is the same as bicarbonate of soda, however it is not the same as baking powder. Make sure you use baking soda/bicarbonate of soda in this recipe. Baking powder will not give the same result!
  • Suitable for freezing.
