If you need a fabulously tasty loaf of bread quickly this is a great recipe!
Ingredients;
500g plain white flour
5g salt
4 tsp baking powder
about 300ml milk
100g grated hard cheese
150g lardons
Turn your oven on to 200 degrees C.
Combine all of the ingredient except the milk in your Kitchenaid stand mixed or similar (if you want to do it by hand I'm sure someone can tell you how!)
Add the milk until you have a smooth dough that you can pick up without it sticking to your hands (about 3 minutes). If you overdo it on the milk just add more flour.
On a floured surface make the dough into a ball by folding the edges into the center and turning as you do this. Turn it over and slice a cross in the top of your dough, I do it about half way through the cooked loaf is easy to pull apart into 4 chunks.
Place in the oven on a baking tray (not too high as it will rise dramatically) and leave it there for 25 minutes.
To check it's done, tap the bottom of the loaf, it should sound hollow, if not turn the oven off and pop it back in for 5 minutes.
You can add whatever you like to this recipe, sometimes I throw in a spring onion too.
I might try orange and walnut next time instead, any other alternatives for ingredients please suggest below :)
Hope you enjoy it!
