Recipe: Pete’s Irish Soda Bread

4 May, 2021 by Expat Living 2 Min Read

https://expatliving.hk/petes-irish-soda-bread-recipe/

In case you’re stuck in a food rut, here’s a fail-safe dessert recipe for Irish soda bread to add to your repertoire. Bon appétit!

“I decided to bake some homemade Irish soda bread just like my mum used to make as we thought it would be fun for the kids and us to do together. It’s so good and easy to make! It also brought back lots of fond memories of my mum who unfortunately passed on a few years ago from dementia. I’ve tried to find buttermilk everywhere and couldn’t, so I was told by a lovely lady to substitute plain yoghurt and water it down. It worked a treat. Everybody has their own soda bread recipe, so do have a go and have fun with the kids along the way.” – Peter Farren
