100% Wholewheat Irish Soda bread with brown butter and rosemary.
Author: Emma
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
4 tbsp butter
2 cups (300g) wholewheat flour
1½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 egg, beaten
1 cup low fat buttermilk
1½ tsp honey
1 tbsp rosemary, chopped
Method
Preheat the oven to 375F/190c
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, whisking occasionally. When you smell a nutty aroma and see brown flecks forming at the bottom of the plan, remove from the heat and set aside and allow to cool (if you have never browned butter, I find the set by step in the notes section helpful).
Whisk the flour, baking powder, soda and salt in a bowl
In a second bowl, combine the egg, buttermilk, honey, rosemary and cooled butter
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until a dough forms
Knead for a couple of minutes in the bowl
Shape the dough into a rounded loaf shape, and put onto a greased baking sheet
Cut a cross into the top of the loaf
Bake for about 35 minutes until a knife comes out clean
Cool on a wire rack before slicing and gobbling
