This is such a great bread recipe because it requires little kneading and no rise time, so you can make it right before dinner and serve it warm. This is also a fantastic addition to any Irish dinner.
Yield: 1 loaf, 12 servings (serving size: 1 slice)
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (about 9 ounces)
- 2 cups whole wheat flour (about 9 1/2 ounces)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- Cooking spray
Preparation
Preheat oven to 450°.
Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl; stir with a whisk. Make a well in center of mixture. Add buttermilk to flour mixture; stir until blended (dough will be sticky). Turn dough out onto a generously floured surface; knead lightly 4 to 5 times. Shape dough into an 8-inch round loaf; place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cut a 1/4-inch-deep X in the top of the dough.
Bake at 450° for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 400° (do not remove bread from oven); bake 15 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Cool on a wire rack.
