There's nothing quite like warm, fresh-out-of-the-oven homemade bread and it makes your house smell so warm and inviting as it bakes. This quick bread recipe is made with freshly milled einkorn flour, boiled beetroot, buttermilk and rosemary. This is best eaten on the day it’s made but it will keep for up to 48 hours.
|
- Heat the oven to 200C/400F. Coarsely grate the beetroot and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
- Place ground einkorn, baking soda and sea salt in a large mixing bowl and stir to combine. Pour in the buttermilk and start to bring the ingredients together using a wooden spoon. When it has almost come together as a dough, tip it out onto a clean surface and start to knead in the grated beetroot. Once combined, shape the dough into a ball and flatten slightly.
- Dust a baking sheet with flour. Transfer the loaf to the baking sheet, then stud the surface with rosemary sprigs. Bake for 30 minutes until golden and cooked through. Allow the loaf to cool before slicing.

Beautiful and mouthwatering!

I love soda bread! I've never made this type, though. What is it that you're spreading over the top of the slice?
Angie - there is something more lovely than homemade bread - and that's homemade bread WITH BEETS!!! Gosh, this loaf is amazing! So so loving your use of beets in it!
@Jeff One is poppy spread, the other is pesto.
Mmmm, bread. And what a bread! Lovely flavors in this, and so seasonal. Super recipe -- thanks.
oh my goodness, what a lovely loaf! though i detest working with beets, i do love the color they provide. :)
Oh wow, this bread is so pretty Angie!! And I love that it looks so hearty! I could totally eat this plain, but I bet it makes a great sandwich too!! Cheers, friend!
You make the most creative and beautiful breads, Angie! This one is gorgeous! Love the beetroot and berries! So festive!!
I so agree - homemade bread is the best! This loaf looks fantastic!
I'll have to admit that I've never used einkorn berries before and have no idea how it would taste in the bread form but this sounds a great holiday baking project for me. Thanks for sharing!
You never cease to inspire me Angie...and I have a package of einkorn flour that was sent to me by a local farm, and I now know what to do with it!
I bet your kitchen smelled amazing, love that you used beetroot Angie, looks delicious.
What a lovely crust. Love the bread.
So gorgeous and yummy ♥
There really is nothing like fresh homemade bread. It is so satisfying to make and to eat! This looks amazing using the beetroot!
I so agree nothing beats fresh made bread. I have been dabbling in sourdough as of late. Really like this one with buttermilk and the beetroot! Just gorgeous pics too!
What a pretty bread Angie! I would never think to put beetroot in bread but I bet it's delicious! Homemade bread is the best. :)
One of the gorgeous bread I have seen so far. You have amazing recipes dear!
I’ve always wanted to make Soda Bread. It sounds so cool and exotic. My Mother made fresh sweet rolls around the Holiday Season, and always left a warm pan of melted butter on the stove for dipping. Man, those were the days when I didn’t constantly worry about my waist line and count every calorie that entered my mouth. This year I’m going for it, bring on the fresh bread and melted butter :)
What a gorgeous soda bread with the streaks of beets. It looks absolutely wonderful---I'd love mine smeared with butter.
I love beets and soda bread! This is a real winner!
This looks really tasty! I will definitely try it!
OMG! This bread is really amazing my dear friend! I don't think I will find einkorn in the area, but maybe I can replace it with other kind of flour, because I think we will love the sweet taste of beets in it.! Big hugs
The bread looks awesome Angie, I should try this with regular wheat flour, I should look round for einkorn flour..
très réussi ce pain, bravo
bonne journée
Looks delicious! Can I have one slice, Angie?
Wow, Angie! It has never occurred to me to try all these beautiful variations on soda bread!
It looks delicious. I love the idea of using beetroot in a soda bread. I will try it. x

Dear Angie, This bread would be perfect to have on the holiday table. I looks delicious. xoxo Catherine
nothing like homemade bread, very true especially when it looks this good!
What a beautiful loaf of bread. You did a fantastic job.
I love the red beet in this- it looks so pretty, and I know it's delicious too. :)
It's finally cooling off here enough to start baking. This bread has just moved to the top of my list! I've always wanted to try something baked with beets and, being a bread lovers, this is the perfect recipe for me right now, thanks!
What a great idea to make bread with beetroot! It looks wonderful.
Bloomin gorgeous pictures always Angie! I made your Brussel sprouts dish the other day and it was lush. Have you ever used Psyllium husk to make bread before?
@Emma | Fork and Good
I use psyllium husk (powder or whole) quite often in my glutenfree and protein bread.

Your Einkorn bread always looks so perfect!! Angie I wish I could have a slice right now, I bet the beetroot flavor makes the bread so special. IT would be a great small gift idea.
Love the rosemary in this! Getting ready to make some rosemary biscotti!
This looks like such a lovely soda bread! I love that rosemary decoration too (bet it smells amazing!).
I see you've been baking bread too, Angie :) What a beautiful loaf! You know, I've never made soda bread? Time to change that too! Your photos could be a Christmas card!
love the natural redness from beetroot and berries ^^
Do you know I've actually never had soda bread?! By the looks of yours I'm definitely missing out. Thanks for such a beautiful recipe Angie!
My daughter loves her Irish heritage (grandmother is from Dublin) and has tried making soda bread without success. I'll pass your recipe along. I love the beetroot. Gives it a festive presentation!
What an interesting bread, using beetroot in it is very unusual. What is that topping you have in the second last photo, so thick and dark? It looks like it would be delicious toasted with a good dollop of butter.

Looks so delicious. I don't mind having bread for the 3 main meals with coffee or with hot soup.
Looks awesome!
Yum yum yum!
Dang a million time Angie. Honestly, what is there not to love this bread.
This soda bread looks wonderful. I love the beetroot that you added.
I love how you incorporated beets into this bread - I've never tried it.
Wow...such a gorgeous bread. You win hands down when it comes to making beautiful bread, Angie. I know no one who does it better! ^.^
What a beautiful bread to serve for a holiday dinner!
Wow! This bread looks pretty amazing, Angie! Those beets are perfectly swirled throughout! Just lovely!
I like soda bread, so easy to make and so delicious. And the idea of a beetroot one is awesome!
What a mouthwatering, hefty bread! Great food guaranteed on your blog always, Angie!
A festive color for this soda bread - perfect for the holiday table!
You really know how to put good use to all the einkorn. The bread looks simply gorgeous.
