Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Line a baking tray with baking paper.

  2. 2

    Stir the lemon juice into the oat milk and leave for 5 minutes to sour.

    5 min
  3. 3

    Mix the flour, xanthan gum, bicarbonate of soda and salt in a large bowl.

  4. 4

    Add the soured oat milk and oil. Mix to a thick, sticky dough. It will be softer than normal soda bread.

  5. 5

    Shape with wet hands into a round on the tray and cut a deep cross in the top.

  6. 6

    Bake for 35 minutes, until golden and hollow sounding underneath.

    35 min
  7. 7

    Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing, as it firms up as it cools.
