Ingredients.
250g Cake Flour
250g Wholewheat Stone Ground Flour
2 heaped teaspoons Baking Soda (Bicarb)
1 cup Raisins or Sultana's
1/2 cup Mixed Seeds
1 teaspoon ground Cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground Cloves
1/2 cup Sugar
a pinch of Salt
1 x 75g tub of mixed Citrus Peel
1 Egg
500ml Buttermilk
Method.
Preheat your oven to 230 degrees C
Mix all the dry ingredients together thoroughly in a large bowl
Beat the egg and buttermilk together in another bowl. I put a couple of tablespoons of milk into the buttermilk container and swill it around to get all the buttermilk out of it.
Only when the oven is almost ready, mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. You do not want it to stand as it will then not rise as much. Make sure that everything is mixed well but do not overwork.
Put the mixture into a well greased cast iron enamel pot, sprinkle with Sesame Seeds (optional) and place into the oven without a lid.
After 10 minutes, turn the oven down to 190 degrees C and bake for a further 50 minutes.
Turn onto a wire cooling rack and allow to cool.
I just serve spread with butter.
