Great Ali, I have a few different soda bread recipes with various flavours including Emmental, Cheddar and Chillies and sweet varieties:-)

Thanks for this recipe, made it once and turned out great. Didn’t add apples instead put caraway seed, pepita and sunflower seed and turned out great. Making it again tonight and added cheese this time. Very versatile recipe

Thanks Martina, it tastes fab too:-)

Thanks Kaz it was lush:-)

Yes I think we had it with the Plum & Apple jam:-)

It is lush and perfect for this time of year:-)

I’ve a packet of spelt flour that i’ve had sitting in the cupboard for ages, this sounds like just the thing to make. Bet it’s delicious all warm and buttery.

I’ve grown an apple tree from a Braeburn pip and after 5 years it still hasn’t flowered so I’m crossing fingers for next year!

Lucky you:-)

So easy, hope you enjoy it:-)

I use it in my Emmental Soda Bread too – I love pear cider too:-)

Most soda breads are made with buttermilk which we don’t like in this family so maybe you would like this one made with cider as it just tastes like normal bread:-)

Thank you, it was good:-)

Do let me know how you get on:-)

Thank you and it’s a pleasure to link up:-)

I really wouldn’t you just need to mix til forms a sticky dough and then shape into a loaf by tucking it in on itself to form a neat dome so no kneading required at all really. The raising agent means you need to get it in the oven quickly and not overwork it or you’ll loose the gases:-)

I’ve noted your adviceon not knocking the air back out but I struggle to ‘knead’ things now – will it be okay to use a food mixer.?

Flavoured soda bread, what a good idea. I wonder if this one could do with a touch of curry!

Thank you, a case of what you have to hand:-)

Lovely breakfast idea thanks!

Great, enjoy:-)

Thank you, it will be repeated as it was so good – the combinations are endless:-)

Just a fabulous unusual recipe! It looks so good.

Thank you Kate:-)

I feel so slow in coming to the table where Soda Bread is concerned, will experiment more now:-)

Always looking to be different LOL:-)

Thank Mark, it was lush and I we were so busy eating it with my Plum & Apple Jam I never got round to having some good Cheddar Cheese on it so I have to make it again soon:-)

You and your apples! Looks lovely though – Ive never done one with fruit in before, a fab alternative to just ‘normal’. xoxo
