Equipment
- 1 dutch oven
Ingredients
- 4 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 3/4 cup soy milk no oil, no sugar added
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450° F. Prepare the dutch oven with a sheet of parchment paper that covers the bottom and comes up the sides enough to prevent the dough from touching.
- Measure out soy milk and pour in apple cider vinegar. Stir. After a few minutes, this will turn to "buttermilk".
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the buttermilk and stir until it can be worked with your hands. Knead the dough until it comes together into a ball.
- Place the ball on the parchment paper inside the dutch oven and score an X approximately 1/4" deep across the top. This will allow the dough to expand while baking.
- Cover and bake for 20 minutes.
- Turn temperature down to 400° F and bake for another 20-30 minutes. When tapped on the bottom of the loaf, it should sound hollow.
- Cool before cutting and serving.
