Soda bread- quick to make, quick to be eaten!

Soda Bread is such a quick and no fuss bread. The great thing is that you will almost certainly have all the ingredients in your cupboard too! Soda bread is made with just plain flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt and milk. However I have seen recipes asking for ‘buttermilk’ but as a student buttermilk is a slight extravagance!

The recipe is as follows:
250g plain white flour
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
½ tsp salt
200ml milk

I love making soda bread. It’s such a different taste to normal bread. Plus when I’m in a hurry I still have time to make it.

You just need to simply add all the ingredients into a bowl and mix gently into a soft dough. Place on a floured surface and mould the dough into a ball. Place on a floured baking tray and pop in a pre heated oven for 30 minutes at 200°.

And there you have a loaf ready to be eaten! You can keep it in the freezer sliced up for up to 3 months, or eat within a couple of days.
