A rustic, hearty, stick to your ribs classic from Ireland. Soda Bread is made with flour, brown sugar, butter, buttermilk, salt, baking powder, and baking soda, which serve as the leavening agent. This version is full of plump sweet raisins. Perfect for breakfast and is also a great accompaniment to meaty stews.
