There's no excuse not to whip up a crusty loaf of Irish soda bread this St. Patrick's Day, especially when it's part-whole wheat and packed with oats! One of the best quick breads out there, soda bread is so easy that the hardest part is waiting for it to cool before serving it with salted Irish butter. I've also included a few variations you can try out!

Ingredients

  • all-purpose flour: 2 cups
  • whole wheat pastry flour: 2 cups
  • rolled oats: 0.75 cup
  • white sugar: 2 Tbsp
  • ½ tablespoons baking powder: 1 piece
  • baking soda: 0.75 tsp
  • kosher salt: 2 tsp
  • buttermilk: 2 cups
  • unsalted butter: 6 Tbsp (melted)

  4. Turn the dough out on a generously floured surface and knead into a smooth, round loaf. Place on the cookie sheet and cut a shallow X into the top of the dough.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden brown, about 1 hour. Carefully tap the bottom of the loaf; it should sound hollow. Cool on a baking rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
