Pre-heat the oven to 190°C.

Combine the flours, salt, bicarbonate of soda and baking powder in a bowl.

Mix in the apple.

Pour in the cider and combine to form a dough (you might want to oil your hand).

It will be a wet dough but you might need to add a little more flour.

Tip onto a well floured work top and knead for 1 minute. (Do not overwork the dough or you will lose all the gases that are going to make this loaf rise in the oven).

Form the dough into a round, dust with spelt flour and score a cross into the top.

Place on a floured baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes. (If it makes a hollow sound when base is knocked it’s ready).

Place on a cooling rack.
