How to Baking Simple Irish Soda Bread.

Preheat the oven. Turn the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Cut parchment paper for a baking sheet, and set it aside.

Combine the dry ingredients. In a large bowl, add the 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of whole-wheat flour, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 2 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1 teaspoon of baking powder.

Cut the butter. Using a sharp knife, cut the butter into smaller pieces.

Combine the butter with the flour mixture. Use a pastry blender, two butter knives, or your clean hands, cut the butter into the flour mixture.

If your using table knives, criss-cross them across the batter, using the meeting points to cut large pieces of butter smaller. You want to reach a point where the mixture is crumbly with very small chunks of butter.

Add any mix-ins. You can add seasonings and flavors such as dried cranberries, caraway seeds, raisins, dill, rosemary, or cheddar cheese.

For seasonings, add a tablespoon or two. For mix-ins such as cranberries, raisins, or cheddar cheese, you can add up to 1 cup. With the cheese, you can add it on top once you’ve formed the loaf but before you’ve baked it.

Pour in the 2 cups of buttermilk. Mix the dough together. Stop mixing once the dough is combined.

Sprinkle flour on a clean counter top or pastry mat. Turn the dough out onto the flour. Knead the dough.

To knead the dough, punch into it with your fists, and then fold it over. Repeat the process 8 or 10 times. The dough should be more thoroughly combined when you’re done.

Make a round, flat ball. Form the dough into a ball, and flatten it down to a disc. It shouldn’t be thicker than 1 1/2 inches.

Place the dough on the prepared sheet. Score the top of the dough with an “X,” going about halfway through the dough.

Bake the bread. Place the bread in the oven, and leave it for an hour. Turn the pan around at 30 minutes. The bread is done with the outside is golden brown and crispy.

Tips. You can also substitute yogurt or sour cream for buttermilk. However, you need to thin them out with milk before using them.
