Irish Brown Bread (Whole Wheat Soda Bread)

My favorite soda bread recipe so far! Hearty bread in just 30 minutes. Whole wheat and bran makes it heartier and a lot more flavorful than white soda breads. It's so good with butter! I like to add in caraway, and sometimes other mix-ins like sunflower seeds and oats. If for some reason you can't get buttermilk, use a half milk/half yogurt mix instead. This recipe makes one small, manageable loaf.

Steps
- 1
Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C. In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients. Fluff it up a bit with your hands or whisk to add some air.
- 2
Roughly mix in the buttermilk (or milk/yogurt mix) until the dough just comes together.
- 3
Without kneading too much (kneading will make the dough dense), form a dome-shaped dough and place on a greased baking pan (you can use wax paper, etc. too).
- 4
With a knife, cut a cross shape into the dough about 2/3 deep.
- 5
Bake at 400°F/200°C for 10 minutes. Then lower temperature to 350°F/180°C and bake for another 15-20 minutes. Lastly, turn the bread upside-down and bake for 5 more minutes.
- 6
Remove from oven and wrap in a tea towel or cloth to prevent the bread from becoming too hard. Let cool a bit and dig in!
