Number of Servings: 12

Ingredients

    3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 tbsp. baking powder
    1/3 cup white sugar
    1 tsp. salt
    1 tsp. baking soda
    1 Eggland's Best large egg, lightly beaten
    2 cups Cultured Reduced Fat Buttermilk (Safeway)
    1/4 cup butter, melted

Directions

Best if made the day before, or several hours before serving.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan (preferably non-stick).

Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and baking soda. Blend egg and buttermilk together, add all at once to the flour mixture. Mix just until moistened. Stir in butter. Pour into prepared pan.

Bake for 65-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the bread comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Wrap in foil for several hours, or overnight for best flavor.

Substitution: Can use light butter instead, but you'll need to recalculate recipe.

Makes 12 servings.

    I made this very easy recipe with a few tweaks: First I added two tablespoons of carraway seed, then I added one cup of dried cranberries (I soaked them in hot water first to make them nice and tender), finally I baked the bread at 350 in muffin cups! Individual soda bread servings for on the go! - 3/16/08

    This is a wonderful bread. It domes up like a yeast bread and has a very nice flavor and texture. I call it a quick bread because it utterly simple to make. I have given it as gifts; it looks like I spent all day on it. - 2/16/08

    Tastes like a gluten free corn bread. Love this will make it again - we didn’t pour all the mix in glass loaf pan .. used same temp.. it didn’t overflow! - 3/17/21

    Although very different from any Irish Soda Bread I have baked, it was very delicious and I am making it again.

    Incredible!
    Looks like an easy recipe. I'm making this using a 12 muffin cup pan. Just wondered if the time and/or oven temp should be adjusted. If so, by how much? - 3/5/16
