Quick herby bread

400g SR flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
just under 15fl oz(3/4 pint)milk and water mixed
30g sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 teaspoons heaped of mixed herbs

Mix all dry ingredients
Beat egg in a jug and make up to 15 fl oz with the milk and water
Mix the wet mixture into the dry mixture.
This makes a batter type mix. Pour this into a loaf tin and bake on gas mark 4 /180 deg for approx 1 hour until risen and golden.

.

do you think this would work in the breadmaker with breadmaker yeast? if not i do have a loaf tin and normal yeast but i'd have to wait til next week because i won't have time tomorrow, and we hardly eat here at teh weekends so now good to me til then

Budgens I would think - though I don't think I have ever been in one, it's a 'dawwn south' thing I think.

Re Te$co - it stops the post showing up on search engines.

Doing quite well on the spendy front this month - freezers stuffed though so shouldn't be spending much at all:D

Hi all, just updating signature, managed to spend another £27 in T$$$o, boy do i dislike that store, must stick to my guns and not use it, but have dilemma as they have given me a £9 off £60 shop which is tempting. Away to give myself a good talking too.
Hope everyone is surviving and holding onto their budgets

A quick trip to Home Bargains this morning - spent £1.48 on biscuits and a big tin of peaches, and £2.49 on a birthday pressie for one of DD's friends (she's going to a party next weekend).

Still on track for £260 this month I hope!

Well I did say I was hoping for a few no spend days this week as I am working nights, as the saying goes "the best laid plans .........Anyway daughter who is waiting for baby No 2 (6 days time) has been at mine almost every day as she is fed up being at home, she cant do much in the way of activity so she has had me on shopping trips as soon as I emerge from my bed!!!!!, with me driving and having a slow wander around (she says she needs to keep moving she says).. So reporting a couple of spends of 2.26 mr sainsbobs/2.20 B&M/tesco1.64. I am def. having a NSD today as DD has dragged her poor hubby out instead of me!!! I am going to bake some buns and checkout my food cupboard.
