Ingredients
3 1/2 cups flour (either cake flour or all-purpose)1 teaspoon sugar (optional: you can absolutely omit this if you prefer sugar free soda bread)1 teaspoon salt1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda8-10 fluid ounces buttermilk
Directions
heat oven to 400. Put flour, sugar, salt and soda in a bowl, sift or stir well together. I didn't use the sugar. place on floured surface, gently knead until combined - don't over knead. Place on greased cookie sheet, shaped in a half round. Take a sharp knife and cut a deep cross in the top. Place in oven and bake for 40, or until when you lift the loaf and tap on the bottom it sounds hollow. servings are cutting the loaf along one of the slits, and then cutting the half in slices.
