Ingredients
| 200 | g | wholegrain flour |
| 275 | g | strong white flour |
| 350 | ml | buttermilk |
| 1 | generous teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda | |
| 1 | large free-range egg | |
| 1 | tsp | honey |
| 1 | handful of wild garlic leaves, roughly chopped | |
| A pinch of salt |
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 190°C. Grease and flour a 900g loaf tin. Combine the flour, bicarbonate of soda, wild garlic and salt in a mixing bowl. In a Pyrex measuring jug, measure out the buttermilk and then whisk in the egg and honey.
Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients, and then pour in the wet mixture. Add a little extra flour if you find the dough is too wet and sticky. Using a wooden spoon, bring the mix together to form a dough. Shape into a rough oval and place in the loaf tin.
Sprinkle with a little flour on top and bake in the oven for 35 minutes. The bread is cooked when you can turn it out on a wire rack, and when the bottom is tapped it should sound hollow. Allow to cool before slicing and enjoying with a little butter.
