How to Make Applesauce Irish Soda Bread
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Grease an 8-inch round baking pan with nonstick cooking spray or butter.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the buttermilk, applesauce, and softened margarine. Mix until well combined.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. If using raisins, gently knead them into the dough.
- Pat or gently roll the dough into a 7-inch round.
- Place the dough in the prepared pan.
- Using a sharp knife, cut a 1/4-inch deep cross into the top of the dough.
- Brush the top of the dough with milk.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Invert the bread onto a wire rack.
- Turn right side up and let cool completely before slicing into 16 wedges.
