Easy and quick recipe for a GF Bread that is fantastic. No yeast required and just a few ingredients. This recipe takes raisins, but it's optional. Irish Soda Bread is a perfect side for your meals: soups, stews, and so on.
Sift gluten-free all-purpose flour, salt, baking soda, and sugar in a large bowl.
Rub in the butter with your fingers or a fork, and stir in raisins.
Add the egg and the buttermilk and mix until well incorporated, and fold the dough together.
Place the dough on a lightly greased oven baking sheet. Press the dough into a 20cm round and with a very sharp knife, cut a deep cross in the top of the dough.
Bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Keep in mind that all ovens are different.
Let cool before removing to a wire rack.
Notes
Store the bread covered at room temperature for 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze the bread in an air-tight container or freezer bag.
