This simple bread is quick and easy to make and is delicious when eaten still warm and dipped in extra virgin olive oil.
Serves: 8 - 10
Prep: 10 minutes
Cook : 30 minutes
Ingredients:
Wet ingredients
110g ricotta cheese
110g natural yoghurt
60g cream cheese
50g mixed blossom honey
2 free range eggs
1 good pinch of sea salt
50ml extra virgin olive oil
Dry ingredients
200g barley flour
100g rye flour
½ tbs baking soda
½ tbs baking powder
Method:
● Preheat oven to 180°C and line a round baking tin (18cm diameter and at least 3cm deep) with baking paper.
● In a medium sized bowl or jug, combine all of the wet ingredients together and mix. It is fine if there are some lumps remaining.
● Combine all of the dry ingredients in a separate large bowl, and mix them until they are all combined.
● Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture and mix gently until just combined - do not overwork the dough.
● Transfer the dough onto the baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the top is crusty golden brown and springs back to the touch.
● Allow to cool in the pan then remove to eat when still a little warm.
