* Olive oil for greasing
* 250 g (9 oz) Plain flour
* 1 level teaspoon Bicarbonate of soda
* 1 level teaspoon Salt
* 2 teaspoons Brown sugar
* 225 ml (8 fl oz) Buttermilk or live Yogurt

===Method===
* '''Important''': Ensure that the oven already at the right temperature before you start. This loaf needs no proving as the baking powder or bicarbonate of soda aerates the bread in place of the yeast, however, its action begins once it reacts with moisture, you may loose the 'rise' if you have to wait for the over to warm up.
* Sift the Flour, Salt and soda in a mixing bowl and add the Sugar.
* Stir in the Yogurt or Buttermilk with a spoon at first, then once amalgamated, with your hands
* The consistency should be pliable and firm, not sticky.
* Knead the Dough lightly in the bowl for a few minutes then shape it into a ball.
* Cut a cross in the top of the loaf to enable the loaf to 'flower' as it bakes.
* Place it on a baking stone or a baking tray
* Bake for about 12 minutes, then turn the Oven down to 200° C (400° F - gas 6) and bake for a further 15-20 minutes, until the base of the Bread sounds hollow when you tap it.
* Allow to cool on a raised grid.
