INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350°. Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl. Cut in
margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk, mixing
just long enough to moisten. Shape dough into a ball and knead on floured
surface 10 times. Place on a greased baking sheet. Shape into a round loaf
2-1/2 inches thick and cut a 1/2 inch deep cross on top. Bake at 350° for 1
hour and serve warm. (May also be shaped into small 3x5 loaves and baked 20
to 25 minutes.) Yield: 1 large loaf.
