- Stir well and add the buttermilk to make a soft dough.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured board and knead gently for a minute or until it is smooth and not sticky.
- Divide the dough in half and shape it into round loaves.
- Place on a lightly buttered baking sheet and bake for 50-55 minutes or until the loaves are a delicate brown.
- The bottom of the baked bread should have a hollow sound when tapped.
- Cool before cutting.
