Whole Grain Irish Soda Bread

Ingredients:
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
leavening agents, baking soda
salt, table
milk, buttermilk, fluid, cultured, lowfat

Directions:
In a big bowl combine flour, baking soda and salt.
Make a well in the center.
Add buttermilk and stir to combine.
Knead into a smooth, shaggy dough.
If the dough is too wet, add more flour, if it is too dry, add a tad more buttermilk.
On a lightly floured surface roll into a ball.
Place on a paper-lined baking sheet and slightly pat down.
Make a cross on top using a sharp knife.
Sprinkle some flour on top.
Bake in the preheated oven at 200C/400F for about 25 minutes checking in near the end to prevent overbrowning.
If a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean, it is ready.
Alternatively you can tap it on the bottom and if it sounds hollow, it is ready.
Remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
This is best eaten the day it is made, but will keep wrapped in a clean tea towel for a few days.
