Serves 6, or 4 if you're a family like ours ....
15 - 20 mins cook time
Ingredients:
- 4 cups flour (self raising)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar or honey
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup plain yoghurt or sour cream
- Grated zest of one lemon
- 1½ cups dried cranberries or other sweet fruit to your taste
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¾ cup sugar - (trial and error to get the right sweetness to your teaste)
- 1½ cups of grated extra sharp cheddar or parmesan cheese
- Herbs such as rosemary, oregano, or chili for a Southern touch.
- Prepare a healthy bed of coals or charcoal briquettes.
- Coat bottom and sides of oven evenly with cooking oil and hang on tripod close to coals. Otherwise place directly on coals, but take care that the bread does not burn (an oven with legs is best here).
- Mix ingredients in a separate bowl and palce dough evenly into the oven so that it reaches the sides.
- Place 18 briquettes or an equivalent quantity of coals on the lid. Let cook until it begins to smell of fresh bread; about 15-20 minutes.
- Important: Don´t cook directly over open flames or your bread will burn. Coals that have settled down, white hot and no flame, are best - but may take a bit longer to cook.
- Remove from the oven and let cool under a towel. Cut and serve with butter or your favorite topping.
