Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 225 g plain (all purpose) flour
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- 150 ml plant-based milk (I used oat) (+ a little extra for the top if desired)
- pinch salt
- pinch pepper
- Additional salt and pepper to sprinkle (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly flour a baking sheet and set aside.
- 2
Put the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl and lightly combine.
- 3
Add the plant-based milk and mix quickly together to give a dough. Shape into a ball and place on the prepared baking tray.
- 4
Pat the dough down to give a disk about 3 cm (approx. 1 inch) high. Use a sharp knife to cut a cross almost all the way through it. If desired, lightly brush the top with plant milk and sprinkle over a little more salt and pepper.
- 5
Bake at 200°C (400°F) for around 20 minutes until risen, golden brown, and cooked through. When it's done, it will sound 'hollow' when tapped lightly on the bottom.

Allow to cool for a few minutes and then serve hot or warm.
