Irish Soda Bread
My gluten free Irish soda bread recipe is my gluten free take on a classic! Whole grain oat flour is mixed with sour milk, an egg, and a little maple syrup to make a sturdy, crusty loaf. Based on an Irish recipe, this soda bread is wonderful in sandwiches, for toast, and more!

Ingredients
- 4 ¼ cups oat flour (560 grams)
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup, honey, molasses, or brown sugar
- 1 ⅔ cups sour milk , or buttermilk
Instructions
- Grease a loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg, then whisk in the oil, maple syrup, and sour milk.
- Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the wet ingredients all at once. Mix together until a soft, sloppy dough forms. Dump the dough into th prepared loaf tin.
- Preheat the oven to 400℉ and let the batter rest while the oven heats, about 10-15 minutes. When the oven is ready, place the bread in the oven and bake for about 1 hour, until a crust forms on the top and the loaf sounds hollow when you knock on it.
- Cool the bread in the tin on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then turn out onto the rack to cool completely. The bread will keep for several days, wrapped in plastic, at room temperature.
