Tick the ingredients you need to add your shopping list.

Preheat the oven to 200˚C/180˚C fan/gas mark 6. Line a baking tray with non-stick parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine the wholemeal flour, plain flour, oats, salt and bicarbonate of soda and stir to combine. Make a well in the centre.
Pour in the buttermilk and stir until the ingredients come together into a sticky dough. Use wet hands to form the dough into a ball.
Place the ball of dough on the prepared baking tray and dust with some wholemeal flour. Cut a deep cross in the centre.
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the bottom of the bread sounds hollow when tapped and the crust is golden.
Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool for 30 minutes before slicing. Serve with plenty of butter, your favourite topping and a pot of tea.
