Irish Soda Bread is easy to make and can be made quickly than other breads as baking soda is used as leavening agent instead of yeast.
Required ingredients
- 2 cups maida (all-purpose flour)
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 small lemon sized ball of jaggery
- 1tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 3 tbsp cold butter
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- ¼ cup raisins
Directions & How to
- In a large bowl combine dry ingredients- flour, jaggery, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- Cut in butter in flour mixture until they start to look crumbly. Mix in the raisins.
- In another bowl, whisk 1 egg and buttermilk. Stir into flour mixture to form very sticky dough.
- Transfer onto a floured surface and knead lightly. Shape into a round loaf and place in a greased baking tray.
