Oops ... somehow this post did not upload. So here we go a bit later than expected. :)
Earlier this week, a work colleague gave me a slice of her homemade bread. It was so tasty that I asked her for the recipe and then made it on Saturday. It's a super easy one (once you find all the healthy ingredients, that took me a while, since things aren't always that easy to find over here). It doesn't have to rise ... the annoying part was scratching the dough out of the mixing bowl and into a loaf pan. Between two meals and a few snacks here and there, Felix and I ate over half of it in two days! I think adding honey would make it really tasty, too. It reminded me of the Honey Oat bread that Subway has, which I LOVE! I may have to try that sometime...any ideas on how much honey I could add?
Irish Soda Bread
3 1/2 cups whole meal flour
4 tbsp oats
3 tbspwheat bran (or wheat germ)
1 tbsp flaxseed (I actually left this out)
2 tbsp brown sugar (or less, that's what my husband would prefer!)
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
A little less than 2 cups buttermilk (you can make butter milk by putting 2 tbsp of apple vinegar with a little less than 2 cups of milk together)
Mix the dry ingredients together, add the milk, bake at 400F/200C for about 40 minutes.
Enjoy! Let me know if you like it and if you try it w/ honey!! :)

ReplyDeleteah! i think i figured out why my posts weren't being posted ... the screen i was taken to was small, so i didn't see that it asked me there to sign in to gmail, even though i am always signed in and in the past i didn't have to ... this time, i was more careful and read what it said under the box i had checked for google account ... strange ... but i think it's gonna work now!!
