Macroom brown soda

Recipe by:

Currabinny Cooks

Try Cork's finest Macroom wholemeal flour in this classic soda bread and serve thick slices with butter alongside mussels for a rich, salty starter

Ingredients

Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Butter a loaf tin.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the flours, bread soda, salt and oatmeal to combine. Make a well in the centre.
Whisk together the egg and the buttermilk and pour into the dry mix. Using your hand as a claw, mix the ingredients together in a circular motion until combined.
Pour into the loaf tin and bake in the oven for 40-50 minutes. Check with a skewer, if it comes out clean the bread should be done but make sure to tap the bottom, listening for that hollow sound just in case.
Cool on a wire rack.
