  3. In a separate bowl or jug, beat the egg and pour in the buttermilk, mixing until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a wooden spoon until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin and smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow the bread to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
