Firebread Recipe

This recipe is self-made and is called ‘Firebread’. It is a savoury cheese, seed and spice cake that Samantha from Barnsley came up with it, as an alternative Indian-style starter dish. It does looks very interesting indeed and makes us want to change they way we eat sarnies forever:-)

Firebread Instructions

4. Pour into a well greased loaf tin
5. Bake for 45-50 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
