Bread

The Recipe

You will need

  • half a bowl wholemeal flour
  • half a teaspoonful bicarbonate of soda
  • a little sugar and salt
  • a little oatmeal
  • a little buttermilk

Method

  1. Put all the dry ingredients, except the oatmeal, in a large bowl and mix thoroughly. 
  2. Sift the oatmeal into the bowl over the other ingredients and gradually add the buttermilk, mixing all together to make a fairly soft batter.  (It should drop off the spoon fairly easily.) 
  3. Pour it into a greased, hot frying pan and bake the loaf on both sides over a moderate heat.
