Ingredients
  • 1 x large tub natural yoghurt (soya or dairy)
  • 1 x 500g bag gluten free oats
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon milk substitute
  • 1 tablespoon treacle or molasses (helps with the colour and flavour)
  • Seeds to top with.

Options

You can add the following to your bread if you like.

  • Seeds
  • Chopped nuts
  • Sun dried tomatoes
  • Chopped olives
  • Grated cheese and onions
Method
  1. Pre heat oven to 180 fan oven. 350 degrees F. Gas mark 4.
  2. Grease and line a loaf tin.
  3. Empty all the yoghurt into a bowl.
  4. Add two tubs of gluten free oats and make sure all the oats stuck on the yoghurt pot are put into the bowl.
  5. Mix together.
  6. Add salt, baking soda, milk, treacle (optional ingredients if being used) and mix together fully. If you don't mix well here you'll get blobs of unmixed treacle in your bread.
