Cheddar and Chive Savory Irish Soda Bread
The most delicious savory Cheddar and Chive Savory Irish Soda Bread just in time for St Patricks Day!
Servings: 8 people
Ingredients
- ½ pound all purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
- ½ pound whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 cups full fat Stonyfield yogurt
- ½ cup cheddar cheese, cut into small ½ inch cubes
- ½ cup chopped chives
- splash of milk if needed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
- Combine both flours in a large bowl. Add baking soda and salt and stir to combine. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add the yogurt, cheese and chives mixing everything in gently with the spoon until the dough starts coming together.
- Turn the dough out onto the kitchen counter dusted with a little bit of flour and gently start bringing it all together to form a round loaf. You can always use a bit more flour if your dough gets really sticky or a tiny splash of milk if it's a bit dry
- Put your loaf on the baking sheet lined with parchment paper and cut a large deep cross in the middle of the loaf. Dust the loaf with a few teaspoons of flour and transfer to the oven to bake for 35-45 minutes until golden brown and sounds hollow when you give it a little tap underneath.
- Remove, let cool and serve with room temperature butter and a sprinkle of maldon sea salt
