- Put the flour in a big bowl along with salt, sugar, yeast and zest. Mix together.
- Pour the lemon and orange juices into the bowl, then add the water.
- Mix together then eventually it will get really hard to stir and will be turning into dough. When this happens take the doiugh onto a flat surface and start to punch and flip the dough so that all the air gets out.
- Place the dough in to a 2lb loaf tin and cover it with tin foil for 1 hour while it rises.
- Preheat oven to 150 C / Gas 2.
- Once it has risen, place in the preheated oven and turn the temperature up to 200 C / Gas 6 and let it cook for around 2 hours. Check frequently.
- When the bread is cooked take out and lat it cool for 5 minutes then you can tuck in and enjoy your lovely flavoured bread either toasted or not.
