How to Make Easy Soda Bread
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the buttermilk until just combined. Do not overmix; the dough should be slightly sticky.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a round loaf (about 1 inch thick).
- Place the loaf on the prepared baking sheet and cut a deep cross (about 1 inch deep) into the top.
- Bake for 65 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Let cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
