Ingredients

450g plain flour (plus extra for kneading and dusting)
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
150g mature cheddar (coarsely grated - it can take lots more than this if you like your bread extra-cheesy)
285ml buttermilk (low-fat natural yoghurt)
3 tbsp semi-skimmed milk
2 tbsp wholegrain mustard with sundried tomatoes (or normal, if you can't find that)

Handy Hint

I had it as part of a Ploughman's lunch. Leftovers can be reheated in the microwave or toasted.

Method

1. Pre-heat the oven to 220C, gas mark 7. Mix the flour, salt, bicarb and cheddar in a big bowl
2. Mix together the buttermilk or yoghurt, milk and mustard then pour into the bowl. Mix with a wooden spoon then your hands, bring together to make a soft dough. Knead lightly until smooth then shape into a 22cm round loaf.
3. Cut the round into eight wedges then transfer to a non-stick baking sheet. Sprinkle with a little flour and bake for 20-25 minutes, until browned and crusty. Cool on a wire rack.
4. Eat warm, maybe with with some roasted cherry tomatoes and bacon.
