Irish Brown Bread: A Traditional Favorite

JENNA KATE AT HOME

This simple soda bread recipe is made with buttermilk for the authentic Irish taste of home.

It’s simple, requires few ingredients and you can whip it together in 5 minutes. It’s also really healthy! Oh, and because it’s yeast free, it tends to be better for keeping my tummy flat too!

Traditional Irish Brown Soda Bread

My favorite way to eat this bread is with a warm bowl of homemade vegetable soup. Slathered in butter, then dunked into the soup, the bread absorbs all the flavors.

INGREDIENTS

-  2 cups Stoneground Whole   Wheat Flour sifted -  1 cup All Purpose Flour sifted -  1 ¾ cups Buttermilk -  1 large Egg -  1 teaspoon Baking Soda -  1 teaspoon Salt -  1 tablespoon Oats optional, to   sprinkle on top

In a small bowl, whisk the egg and set aside. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients.

Step 1

Make a well in the middle and add the buttermilk and egg. Mix well with a wooden spoon until a soft, slightly wet dough is formed.

Step 2

Pour the mixture into a greased loaf tin. Run a knife along the top of the bread in the shape of a cross (lengthwise then widthwise).
