Irish Soda Breadhas a distinctive taste which is very different from many of the dessert type breads people in the United States are used to. A true Irish soda bread recipe doesn’t include sugar, raisins or cranberries. For ours we included apples. If you’re looking for a dessert that isn’t too sweet or rich this is a good choice. Adding a little fresh whipped cream offsets the breads dry texture perfectly. A light sprinkle of cinnamon over the top is a nice finishing touch.

| 1 crisp apple, cut into small chunks | |
| 4 1/4 cups flour | |
| 1 tsp salt | |
| 1 tsp baking soda | |
| 4 tsp butter | |
| 1 large egg, beaten | |
| 1 3/4 cup buttermilk |
Irish soda bread is a tradition for St Patricks day here in the US.
| 1. | Mix the dry ingredients and then add the apple pieces |
| 2. | Add the milk and stir well. The mix should be more like a batter than dough. |
| 3. | Bake at 355° for 35-40 minutes. Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. |
