Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan forced. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
Place the wholemeal flour, plain flour, salt and baking powder in a large bowl and stir to combine.
Add the butter and rub together with the flour mixture until it is all but incorporated and the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Make a well in the middle and add the buttermilk and strawberries. Mix briefly with a wooden spoon until it is a shaggy heap. -
Step 2
Lightly dust the bench with flour and tip the mixture out onto it. Knead briefly - no more than 6-8 movements - to bring the dough into a ball. Flatten it slightly and cut it into 8 pieces.

Step 3
