How to Make Oatmeal Soda Bread
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking sheet and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup rolled oats, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter or margarine using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 1 1/4 cups buttermilk (or sour milk).
- Pour the wet ingredients into the well in the dry ingredients.
- Stir gently with a fork just until the dough is moistened. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
- Gently knead the dough by folding and pressing 10-12 times, or until it barely holds together.
- Shape the dough into a 6-inch round loaf on the prepared baking sheet.
- Cut a 1/4-inch deep cross, about 4 inches long, into the top of the loaf.
- Brush the top of the loaf with the remaining beaten egg.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the baking sheet and let cool slightly before serving warm.
- Enjoy with your favorite soup, stew, applesauce, or spread!
