  2. Tip the yoghurt into a large mixing bowl with the flours, bicarbonate of soda, honey, 1 egg and a large pinch of sea salt.
  3. Stir with a fork until everything just comes together, then get in there with your hands and shape the dough into a ball.
  4. Dust a clean surface with flour and flatten the dough into a large disc, roughly 2.5cm thick.
