Irish Brown Bread Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 oz. Kerrygold butter
- 3 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°. Grease an 8-by-5-inch metal loaf pan with butter.
- In a large bowl, sift the wheat and all-purpose flour with baking soda and salt.
- In a small bowl, whisk the buttermilk with the egg; stir in the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon until a rough dough is formed.
- Dust a smooth surface with flour and transfer the dough; knead the dough until smooth.
- Mold the dough into a loaf and put it in the prepared pan. Bake for about 50 minutes, until the bread has risen about 1/2 inch above the rim of the pan.
- Remove from oven and place on a wire cooling rack. Tap the base of the loaf and listen for a hollow sound. Let cool, then slice and serve with Kerrygold 100% pure grass-fed butter. Enjoy!
