How to Make Authentic Irish Soda Bread Bread Machine
- Combine all ingredients in your bread machine according to manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the liquids are added first.
- Select the dough cycle on your bread machine. Most machines will take around 1 hour and 15 minutes for the dough cycle.
- Once the dough cycle is complete, the bread machine should automatically transfer to the bake cycle. If not, manually select the bake cycle (check your bread machine's manual for specifics).
- Allow the bread machine to complete the baking cycle (approximately 75-80 minutes).
- Once the baking cycle is finished, carefully remove the bread from the bread machine and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
