Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the egg and half of the buttermilk to the flour mixture. Stir to combine.
- Continue adding the remaining buttermilk a little bit at a time, stirring just until the dough holds together. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead it a couple of times.
- Form the dough into a 9-inch circle. Using a sharp knife, cut a cross shape ½-inch deep across the top.
- Transfer the dough to a parchment paper lined baking pan.
- Bake the bread for 45-50 minutes or until lightly browned. The bread should sound hollow when tapped.
- Allow the bread to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Replace buttermilk by adding 1 ½ tablespoons of white vinegar or lemon juice to 1 3/4 cups of milk and allowing the mixture to stand for 5 minutes.
- Soda bread tastes best served fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. This bread can be toasted or warmed in the microwave or oven.
- Optional add-ins include 1/2 cup of raisins or dried currants.
