OLD-FASHIONED SODA BREAD 
2 c. whole wheat flour
2 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 1/3 tsp. baking soda
2 tbsp. granulated sugar
Dash salt
1 pt. plain yogurt or buttermilk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a bowl, combine wheat flour and all-purpose flour. Add baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt. Add yogurt or buttermilk. Mix and knead until a soft dough forms. It should still feel wet.

Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times, just until dough sticks together. Form into round loaf. With a floured knife, make some slits on top of loaf. Place on lightly greased baking sheet and bake at 375-400 degrees about 20 minutes or until bread is golden brown and the inside is cooked. Serve immediately with butter and/or jam or cheese. Yield: 1 loaf.
