Irish Soda Bread


Ingredients:
  • Sifted all purpose flour – 2 cups
  • Unsifted whole wheat flour – 2 cups
  • Baking powder – 1 Tea spoon
  • Baking soda – 1 Tea spoon
  • Salt – ¼ Tea spoon
  • Golden raisins – ¼ cup
  • Caraway seeds – 2 Tea spoon
  • Buttermilk – 1¼ cups
 Method:
  • Preheat oven to 375 degree F. In a large bowl, combine all purpose flour, wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir in the raisins and caraway seeds.
  • Add enough buttermilk to make dough that is firm but not dry. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until it is smooth – two to three minutes. Shape the dough into a round loaf and using a sharp knife, slash a large X ¼ inch deep across the top.
  • Coat a baking sheet with the cooking spray, place the loaf on it and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the bottom of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
