Buttermilk Soda Bread
Soda bread is a very easy bread that requires no kneading. It is even better the next day. Serve with butter as a side to Irish stew!

- Preheat oven to 160 degrees C. Grease a 12x23cm loaf tin.
- Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Blend egg and buttermilk together in a separate bowl, and add all at once to the flour mixture. Mix just until moistened. Stir in butter. Pour batter into loaf tin.
- Bake for about 1 hour, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool on a rack. Wrap in a clean tea towel for several hours, or overnight, for best flavour.

Wonderfully soft and moist. Everyone at our party loved it. I put the batter in two loaf tins and they baked beautifully. Thanks! - 14 Jul 2008
Very Good. This bread is a soft dough, so you must put it into a loaf tin, unlike other soda breads that you can shape into a loaf. This as with all soda breads is a dense bread. - 14 Jul 2008
Having never made soda bread before, I was confused as to which recipe might be "the best." I liked this bread, but my partner thought it was really plain and boring. - 14 Jul 2008
