Ingredients

  • Unrefined Coconut Oil Or Butter For Pan
  • 2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
  • 2 cups Unbleached All-purpose Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoons Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 sticks Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 1-1/4 cup Buttermilk, Shaken (Plus More For Brushing On The Bread)
  • 1 cup Golden Raisins
  • 1/2 cups Zante Currants
  • 1 whole Egg

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat the bottom of a cast iron skillet with a teaspoon of coconut oil or with butter. Combine the dry and the wet ingredients, along with the raisins and currants. With your hands, mix until just combined. Add more buttermilk if the dough is too dry. Knead until it just comes together and then form into a large ball, place into the prepared skillet and let rest for 20 minutes. Brush with a tablespoon of buttermilk, make a cross on the top of the bread and bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until a tester comes out clean. Serve with butter and/or drizzle with honey!
