Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
Step 2
Combine both flours in a large bowl. Add baking soda and salt and stir to combine. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add the yogurt, cheese and chives mixing everything in gently with the spoon until the dough starts coming together.
Step 3
Turn the dough out onto the kitchen counter dusted with a little bit of flour and gently start bringing it all together to form a round loaf. You can always use a bit more flour if your dough gets really sticky or a tiny splash of milk if it's a bit dry
Step 4
Put your loaf on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper and cut a large deep cross in the middle of the loaf. Dust the loaf with a few teaspoons of flour and transfer to the oven to bake for 35-45 minutes until golden brown and sounds hollow when you give it a little tap underneath.
Step 5
Remove, let cool and serve with room temperature butter and a sprinkle of maldon sea salt
