The ingredients of traditional soda bread are flour, baking soda, salt, and buttermilk. Other ingredients can be added such as butter/oil, egg, raisins or seeds/nuts.
I am so excited to give this recipe a try, a sourdough take on the traditional soda bread recipe found on King Arthur Flour site, especially with St. Patrick's Day just around the corner.
This is a quick rising soda bread with flavour and texture twists by replacing buttermilk with rye sourdough starter, olive oil instead of butter, molasses instead of honey, and using a mix of wholegrain emmer and white spelt flour (modern wholewheat and all-purpose flour are great alternatives here), hemp and poppy seeds (or sunflower and sesame seeds). While not an authentic Irish soda bread, it tastes absolutely delicious and full of flavours.

- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Lightly grease a baking sheet, or line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the ground emmer flour, white spelt flour, seeds, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the rye starter, olive oil, molasses, and milk. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Depending upon the absorbency of the flour, you may need to add another tablespoon or two milk if the dough seems too stiff but it should not be too wet or sticky.
- Knead the dough a couple of times to make sure it's holding together, divide it in half, and shape each half into a ball. Flatten the balls slightly, and place them on the prepared baking sheet. 1^Dust generously with flour. Mark a deep cross in it with a sharp, serrated knife, cutting about two-thirds of the way through the loaf. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until they're golden brown or sound hollow when tapped. Cool on a wire rack.

Se ve increible su pan y la miga perfecta,saludos y abrazos
Looks good! It is a very healthy loaf of soda bread. How long can you keep the sourdough starter? I've seen a recipe somewhere that you have to keep feeding the starter for days, right?
If I lived in your neighborhood I would be visiting you every time I could smell the freshly baked bread :)))
Angie , This is healthy bread and I love it with poppy and hemp seeds...mmmm yummy...I want to try baking my own soda bread one day :) Thanks for sharing the recipe with us !

Hi Angie! This bread looks beautiful, i love its rustic look! Very nice clicks :)
To say this looks amazing is an understatement! I just read about Emmer wheat and how it was the precursor to Kamut. I wish I could find my grain grinder so I could make this fresh, but will definitely keep this recipe when I do, XOXO

LOVELY! xxx
You packed every inch of this bread with deliciousness Angie! What a wonderful soda bread!
I think the Irish Soda Bread was one of my very first bread recipe attempts. Yours turned out perfectly fluffy and very pretty! You must make it again on St. Patty's Day!
Love this bread - it look so hearty, so crusty! I am always amazed at your creativity at making breads - BRAVO!
Hi Angie,
Lovely soda bread! I have never heard of hemp seeds before. Am always learning about new ingredients from your wonderful bakes!
I've been eyeing the pull-apart bread at King Arthur's :D I like your twist on the traditional soda bread , not only it's nutritious , I'm sure it's pretty delicious as well !
I love the sourdough twist on this classic bread! The loaf looks absolutely perfect too... I bet it smelled great while baking!!
This looks wonderful Angie. My daughter and I tried making soda bread a few years ago. Her grandmother grew up in Dublin, so it seemed like a good idea at the time. I must say it was a flop. Maybe we'll have better luck with this recipe.
Gorgeous recipe Angie!
Oh yum! This looks so good! I've been meaning to make some bread. This looks so good!
Lovely and beautiful bread! Nothing like home bake goods-))
Fantastic Angie and I love your whole set up! Awesome :)
Perfect for St. Patty's!! I love the addition of hemp seeds!
What a new fun take on Soda Bread! Can't wait to give it a try!
I went on a sourdough baking day last week, so now I have some starters to play with - I'm hoping to have a go this weekend :)
This looks awesome !
I can only admire your healthy bakes! I am not able to make bread recently as water interruption at my area, made baking and cooking so inconvenience..
I just made your divine bread & my husband Peter & I are loving it so much! I just ate it with a tasty seasonal salad! Divine! :) xxx
What a perfect sofa break for St. Patrick's day. Gotta make one tomorrow for the occasion. ;)
Your repertoire of flour blows me away Angie. What the heck is Emmer grain? Need to look that one up. I love the color that molasses gives a loaf of bread as well as the flavor. This bread does look delicious!
your blog always makes me want to try making bread :) do you own a bakery ? perhaps you should :)
wow, healthy stuff at its best! hard to find the ingredients here, though :(
Angie, this soda bread has all sorts of healthy additions. That farro ground is something I need to find. :)
-Gina-
Looks like a perfect loaf! Wish I could try this but where I am staying does not have an oven. It will be hard not to bake anything for a while.
Now that everything is settling in, I am hoping to visit your beautiful blog more often and enjoy your baking :)
Your bread is beautiful, sourdough is one of my favorite breads!
You never fail to amaze me! You always introduce me to something new and wonderful. Now I have to look around to see where I can buy emmer. Thanks - keep it up!
Gina
