Soda Bread

A great option if you're intolerant to yeast. This is also diary free.

Based on https://www.easypeasyfoodie.com/no-buttermilk-soda-bread-vegan-dairy-free/.

Ingredients

• 200 g plain white flour.
• 150 g wholemeal flour. (If just using white flour, turn down the oven temperature by 40°C).
• 50 g oats plus extra to scatter on top.
• 3ml salt.
• 1 teaspoon baking soda.
• 200 ml oat or almond milk.
• 15ml apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice, or white wine vinegar - let's call this the acid for the recipe).

Directions

1. Preheat your fan oven to 200°C or 220°C for a convection oven.
2. Dust a baking tray with a little plain flour.
3. Mix all the dry ingredients, I'm doing this in my Kenwood, so will use the dough hook on speed 2 for 1 minute.
4. Add the milk and acid, and mix on speed 1 for 2 minutes.
5. It should form a rough dough ball.
6. 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.
7. If you wish, you can dust the loaf with a little flour and a sprinkle of oats.
8. Place the bread in your preheated oven for 30 minutes.
