I begged for this recipe from my co-worker when he ‘accidentally’ mentioned he had a great soda bread recipe. It was perfect timing because St. Patrick’s Day was only days away!
Ingredients
- 4 cups bread flour, plus more for dusting
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 6 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 ¼ cups buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- ¾ cup finely chopped onion
- ¾ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together bread flour, salt, and baking powder until thoroughly combined. Beat in the butter, buttermilk, and confectioners' sugar to make a dough; gently mix in the onion and Cheddar cheese. Divide dough in half, and shape each half into a ball. Place the loaves onto the prepared baking sheet, and gently flatten to about 2 inches thick. Dust each loaf with flour.
Step 3
Bake on a preheated oven until browned, about 30 minutes. Cool on racks for a few minutes; serve warm.
Cook’s Note
To make into biscuits, increase the cheese and onion to 1 cup each. Form into drop biscuits on the parchment-lined sheet, and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until lightly browned on top and cooked through.
