“This is a brilliant recipe. Have made it several times since finding it on your site. Stays lovely and moist for a couple of days. But then it makes super toast! ~Mary

Irish soda bread is a type of bread that has been a staple in Ireland for centuries. The simple recipe is made from flour, baking soda, salt, and buttermilk. It has a distinctive flavor and texture that is both dense and crumbly, and is often enjoyed with butter or jam.
Oatmeal Irish Soda Bread
I’ve used one of my favorite ingredients to bump up the flavor and texture of this Irish oatmeal soda bread ~ oat flour! It’s naturally sweet, and adds so much to almost anything you bake. And guess what? You don’t need to go out and buy anything special, you can whip up your own by processing regular oats, either rolled or steel cut, in a food processor or high speed blender. I used my Vitamix and it took less than a minute. The resulting flour is silky and really delicious. For more details, check out my post about how to make your own oat flour.
Practically, cutting a cross in the top of the bread allows the heat to penetrate deeper into the dough during baking, which helps the bread cook more evenly. This technique also helps the bread to rise properly, as the cross allows the steam to escape as the bread bakes.
Symbolically, the cross is often seen as a way of blessing the bread and protecting it from evil. In traditional Irish households, it was believed that cutting a cross into the bread would ward off the devil and protect the household from harm. The cross also served as a way to divide the bread into quarters, which could represent the four provinces of Ireland or the four elements of nature.

Oat Flour Bread
Hey there ~ I'm Sue. I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isn’t that what it’s all about? My recipes are creative, vibrant, and totally approachable no matter what your skill level. Let's grab a bite together!For years I’ve been trying to make a moist soda bread loaf like the kind I love to eat when I’m in Ireland. Finally I’ve achieved it with this recipe, which is adapted from Bon Appétit’s recipe for Fallon & Byrne Soda Bread (Fallon & Byrne is a restaurant in Dublin). The bread is a whole-wheat loaf with both rolled and steel-cut (pinhead) oats, and does not have the hard crust that round soda breads can have. One reason is that the moist dough is baked at a lower temperature than free-form soda bread.

Ingredient Healthy Oat Bread (no Yeast, Flour, Sugar, Oil, Or Eggs)
Made this as friends were coming over—prep was a flash and it slid right out of the pan. Served with tasty local cheeses and the bread became the main event of the meal. Everyone loved it. Not too sweet or soda-tasting for us! *only had quick-cook oats (sigh) so used those for the 65g of steel-cut/tolled oats and it worked just fine. *made ‘buttermilk’ with 280g whole milk and 10g vinegar.
We are just back from Ireland and we loved the brown bread while we were there. This bread is excellent and very much like the best brown bread we had there. I followed the recipe exactly and think that the steel cut oats are essential for that toothsome texture that make it so delicious. And of course it needs some good Irish butter!
This makes a delicious loaf, very much like the bread I had in Ireland. You do not need to use 2 teaspoons of baking soda. One teaspoon will be enough and you will not get that odd bitter taste from an excess of soda.
Ingredient Healthy Banana Oatmeal Bread (no Flour, Refined Sugar Or Butter)
This is a wonderful recipe and so easy to make. I double it and bake in a 8 inch round pan. I do substitute molasses for the brown sugar. So good and healthy too.
If you are familiar with McCambridge's bread in Ireland, then this is a wonderful replacement, in fact, improvement, as it's home made. I make it weekly and have used greek yoghurt as a substitute for buttermilk and that worked well. Super easy and tasty!
Only use 1 teaspoon of baking soda. As per other recipes. 2 teaspoons will give it a really weird after taste. Just made this and had to chuck it. Remaking with 1 teaspoon.
No Knead Honey Oatmeal Artisan Bread
I love this bread. It's the best soda bread I've ever had, full of whole grains including oats - an essential food for those of us of Scottish descent. I've made it with Greek yogurt when I didn't have buttermilk but had to have this bread and it works well. Highly recommended. Thanks, Ms. Shulman.
The smell brought me back to Ireland, and I could barely wait for it to cool before slicing off a piece! I had read through the comments first and reduced the baking soda to 7g - no aftertaste. I had no buttermilk so I subbed kefir, which worked well. Simple, delicious, and will absolutely make again. Another fantastic recipe from Ms. Shulman!
The bread had a strange aftertaste, which I think was baking soda--too much for the size of the loaf. It was not something I would make again.
Oatmeal Bread (no Yeast & No Knead!)
This bread tastes exactly like what is served with almost every meal in Ireland. It is super, super easy to make and is delicious with butter and jam. We can't get enough of it! Thank you so much for this recipe, you helped lessen my sad heart that can't wait to return to Ireland!
After living in Ireland for four years and returning to the states, I've tried many recipes trying to fulfill my craving for brown bread, this is is by far the best. The steel cut oats really add to to the texture!
Made a dairy-free version of this with Oat Milk Apple Cider Vinegar replacing buttermilk. Worked like a charm. Love this recipe! Super Oatey.
Easy Wheaten Bread Recipe
This loaf is the perfect size for small households and it is as moist and delicious as described. I did toast both types of oats in a skillet with about a Tablespoon of butter for an extra tasty depth of flavor. 1 teaspoon of soda was enough.
I subbed grits for steel cut oats and rehydrated 1/4 c buttermilk powder using half water half milk, and it came out fantastic. I used the full amount of baking soda and noticed no soda taste in the finished loaf.
Remarkably easy to prepare! After trying it a few times with regular whole wheat flour I purchased some imported Irish extra coarse whole meal flour and the texture is wonderful. I use more brown sugar than called for (a rounded tablespoon) and it does not make it too sweet, and might try it with molasses at some point for the extra flavor. I also have added a half cup each of raisins and chopped walnuts and have been pleased with the results. Very easy and delicious.
Walnut Oatmeal Sweet Irish Soda Bread Recipe
I have made this bread many times and it's great! Recently, I had some extra apples and carrots on hand, and here's the recipe I used to make it, modified from the above. 217g AP flour 70g rolled oats 4g salt 10g baking soda 290g buttermilk 1 apple, grated (I used Fuji) 1 small-medium carrot, grated Follow instructions as listed, mixing in grated fruits to buttermilk and then mixing dry and wets. Bake for 45 minutes.
Yum! Cut baking soda to 1 tsp (perfect; thank, peeps). Terrific! But, I only had a standard loaf pan (bigger than the bread pan measurements specified), so the dough did not fill the pan much, and I had to adjust baking time. Went ahead and bought the small bread pan (because this bread is that good), as
