Irish Soda Bread Recipe
Irish Soda Bread Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups All Purpose Flour
- 3 1/2 TSP Baking Powder
- 1 TSP Baking Soda
- 1 TSP Salt
- 1 ¼ - 1 ½ cups Yogurt plain unsweetened
- 1 TBS Olive Oil vegetable oil works fine as well
- 1 TBS Honey
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Add the yogurt, oil, and honey to the bowl and mix well. You may need to use your hands to get all of the ingredient incorporated completely.
- Flour a clean counter-top and knead the Irish Soda Bread dough slightly for about 30 seconds. Form into a nice round shape. Grease a cake pan and place the round dough into the center of pan. Cut a shallow X shape on the top of the round dough using a sharp knife or bread knife. Bake the bread at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes.

- Serve warm! Top with butter once you remove from the oven or your favorite jam.
**Fun Facts! – Irish Soda Bread began popping up in the mid-19th century when baking soda first became available for use as a raising agent. Easier and cheaper than traditional yeast. Also, traditional recipes call for buttermilk. However, in some recipes, the buttermilk is replaced by live yogurt (as I did here) or even stout. Which is on my to-do list!
Happy Baking!

I am making this bread right now. Is the dough supposed to be like cake batter consistency? Because that is how mine is and I followed the ingredients. I’ve never made soda bread I am used to making yeast bread.
I just made this..It was excellent!
The only change was I subbed 1 cup domestic beer for the yogurt.
