Here’s a recipe I haven’t made in a very long time…
Pint glass bread
- a pint glass of whole meal flour
- a pint glass white flour
- ¾ pint buttermilk
- enough salt to coat the bottom of a pint glass ( I would use less)
- enough baking soda to coat the bottom of a pint glass
- enough butter to coat the bottom of a pint glass
- rub the butter into the flours and salt with fingertips
- make a dip in the middle and add the buttermilk
- pull it all together and knead lightly – don’t over knead
- form into a ball, flatten slightly and cut across, turn 90 and cut again
- cook in a hot oven at 190 degrees for about 35-45 mins
- when it sounds hollow when knocked on the bottom it’s done
- eat with loads of butter
I don’t know whose house is in my featured image, but can’t you imagine the person living three making their own bread?!
