Method

Put butter in a bowl (not metal) in microwave oven for 1 min & set aside, pre heat an oven to 170'c

Place both flours, bi carb, baking powder, sugar & salt in a bowl & mix well, then make a well in the flour mix.

In the butter bowl add buttermilk & egg then whisk all together, tip the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture & mix well.

Tip out dough onto a floured work top, knead using floured finger tips & bring together from the edges inwards, then turn over & wipe off excess flour, you can either place in a loaf tin, push dough down flat in the tin, then with a knife make a cut a line length ways about 2cm deep. Or bake traditionally by forming dough into a doughnut shape, place on a non-stick baking sheet & make a cross cut with a knife 2cm deep.

Place in the oven & bake for 35 min in a loaf tin or 30 mins traditionally, push a skewer in the middle, pull out & if clean you know its cooked, should sound hollow when taped on the base.
