Aldi Brown Bread Recipe

Marie’s Brown Bread, baked by Marie McCarthy from Carrigaline, Co. Cork and the winner of this year’s National Brown Bread Baking Competition, will go on sale in 145 Aldi stores nationwide from Saturday, 12th December, priced at €1.79.

The competition final, which is run by Aldi and in association with the National Ploughing Association (NPA) and the Irish Countrywomen's Association (ICA) was held in September at Cooks Academy in Dublin where Marie was commended by the judges for her Brown Bread’s overall appearance, texture, and all important taste. The bread is sure to be popular with Aldi customers nationwide.

The event this year was a huge success with entries from all over Ireland submitted into Aldi stores. This year, over 700 entries were submitted making it the most successful year to date. Open to all members of the public, all entrants were asked to drop their freshly baked bread to Aldi stores on certain dates, with the breads then judged by a panel, and 4 contestants making it through to the final.
