Thank you to Katie from Windermere for getting in touch with this delicious recipe which makes the nicest soda bread ever.

INGREDIENTS: 

• 2 cups wholemeal self raising flour

• 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

• 1 cup Longley Farm Cultured Buttermilk

• 1 tbsp olive oil 

METHOD: 

Sieve all the dry ingredients into a bowl.

Make a well and pour in oil and buttermilk.

Stir until dough ball forms.

Pop onto a greased baking tray.

Shape into a round cob.

Cut a cross on top.

Brush with milk.

Bake for about 30 minutes, at 200°C (Gas mark 6) or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the base.
