Makes one loaf
500g flour (
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
pinch of salt
1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
2. Add lemon juice to the milk and let it sit for a few minutes to let it curdle.
3. Add the bicarbonate of soda and salt to the flour and mix.
4. Add the curdled milk to the flour mixture and mix.
5. Tip it out to a floured surface and knead just a little with a bit more flour. You won't be able to knead it like proper bread dough as it's soft. Be very very light and gentle with the dough. Shape to whatever shape you want.
6. Line a tray with baking sheet and plop the dough on top. Sprinkle with flour.
7. Put it in the oven for 45 minutes. It's done when you knock at the base and it has a hollow sound.
Note: If using wholemeal flour, it tends to be very grainy. You may need to add some plain flour so it won't be too sticky. Use slightly less than 2 cups of the milk & lemon juice mixture. This will not rise as much as using plain flour, and the texture is very dense like a cake.
Tip: You can add oats, sunflower seeds, melon seeds, or whatever you like to the dough to give it more texture and nutritional value.
