Baobab milk bread

1. Preheat the oven to 170°C. Spray two 22 cm loaf tins with nonstick cooking spray and place on a baking tray.
2. Combine the flour, polenta, baking powder, salt, sugar and rosemary in a large mixing bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, oil and buttermilk together, then stir into the dry ingredients.
4. Using a large spoon, fold the corn kernels, creamed sweetcorn, peppadews, parsley and two-thirds of the cheese into the mixture.
5. Divide the batter evenly between the loaf tins and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean.
6. Cool for 10 minutes in the tins before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Cook's note: Serve with butter and biltong dust. Peppadews are unique to South Africa, but you can substitute with pimento peppers or pickled jalapeños, or use red bell pepper.
