Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 200 g plain white flour
  • 150 g wholemeal flour
  • 50 g oats (plus extra to scatter on top)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda (see note 1)
  • 200 ml neutral tasting dairy free milk (see note 2)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar ((or lemon juice, or white wine vinegar – see note 3))

Instruction

  • Preheat your oven to 220C / 200C fan / gas mark 7 / 425F. Dust a baking tray (I actually use a pizza tray) with a little plain flour.
  • Mix all the dry ingredients together thoroughly. Add the oat milk and vinegar, and stir to combine.
  • Keep stirring until the ingredients come together as a dough, then squidge together to form a ball.
  • 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.
  • If you wish, you can dust the loaf with a little flour and a sprinkle of oats, then place the bread in your preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  • Serve with soup or salad or anything else you fancy! (And don’t forget it makes great toast the next day…)
