Ingredients

    4 cups (13 1/2 ounces) whole wheat pastry flour
    2 to 3 tablespoons (7/8 to 1 1/4 ounces) sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 1/2 cups (12 ounces) buttermilk
    2 tablespoons (7/8 ounce) vegetable oil or melted butter (1 ounce)

Directions


In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the buttermilk and the oil or butter. Stir together until blended—some lumps will remain. Turn the dough out onto a floured board and knead about 10 times, or until it all holds together. Form it into a large ball and place it on a lightly greased baking sheet. Cut a deep cross in the top. Bake the bread in a preheated 400°F oven for approximately 40 minutes, or until it tests done (a cake tester inserted into the center will come out clean.) Yield: 1 large round loaf, 10 to 12 inches in diameter.
