St. Paddy’s Day (and the official start of spring) is right around the corner. And if you’re looking for the best Irish soda bread recipe, well, your search is over. This version is a little twist on the classic (the one with raisins or currants), but it’s still just as delicious! It’s also perfect for anyone who isn’t a fan of raisins: We’re swapping them out in this variation for some fresh rosemary and plenty of cheddar cheese!
The rest of the ingredients are simple pantry staples that you likely already have on hand. This soda bread recipe couldn’t be simpler; just mix up your dry ingredients, cut in a bit of butter, stir in your egg and milk, and then bake it up! Easy, right?
This bread tastes incredible served with a bowl of traditional Irish Stew or even on its own–but don’t forget to add a generous slather of salted butter! And, you must promise to enjoy this while it’s piping hot from the oven. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
