Easy Irish Soda Bread
Easy Irish Soda Bread is one of the easiest breads to make. It’s made with just 5 basic ingredients and requires no yeast. I have made it for St. Patrick’s Day and any day I want fresh bread. Irish bread is a great bread to start with if you’re a beginner cook. No need to knead the dough on a floured work surface.
