Ingredients
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1 cup wholemeal flour
- 1/4 cup rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 75 gram aged cheddar or tasty cheese grated
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 medium courgette grated, moisture squeezed out in clean tea towel
- 1 cup buttermilk
Method
- 1Preheat the oven to 200°C
- 2In a bowl or processor combine the flours, oats, salt, cheese, thyme and baking soda.
- 3Add the courgette to the dry ingredients. Pulse or stir to mix, then pulse or stir in the buttermilk. When the dough is just mixed, turn onto a floured bench and, working quickly, shape into a round loaf.
- 4Flatten the loaf slightly with your hand, transfer to a greased baking sheet and dust with flour. Cut a cross in the top and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until well risen, nicely coloured and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Notes
- Make sure the oven has been pre-heated and you have everything ready as the dough will begin to rise as soon as the buttermilk and baking soda are combined. - PER SERVE Energy 191kcal, 800kj • Protein 8g Total Fat 4.6g • Saturated Fat 2.5g • Carbohydrate 27g • Fibre 3g • Sodium 515mg
