A classic loaf of bread takes 4 hours from start to finish and sourdough can take more than 3 days! Ed’s delicious soda bread is ready for the table in about 1 hour, even if it’s your first time baking it. It can be adapted for almost any flavour, but sour cream and chives is always popular. If you want to omit the sour cream, yoghurt is a great alternative. So, whether you’re serving it with a soup or just with some butter, you can’t beat Ed’s bread.
Ingredients
Method
Preheat oven to 210°C fan-forced (230°C conventional). Combine flours in a bowl, then sift in bicarb, cream of tartar and salt. Mix well.
Whisk buttermilk, sour cream and chives in a bowl until smooth. Make a well in flour mixture, add buttermilk mixture, then mix very gently to make a dough. Using floured hands, form into a ball and put on a lined oven tray.
Score loaf with a serrated knife. Rest for 15 minutes. Bake for 20 minutes, then reduce oven to 180°C fan-forced (200°C conventional). Bake for 20 more minutes, until it sounds hollow if tapped. Cool on a wire rack. Serve with butter.
