This Soda Bread has been a favorite in my mother’s kitchen for as long as I’ve been alive. Just mix the ingredients and place in a regular size loaf pan as their is no need to let it rise. It’s cakelike texture makes it a wonderful treat right out of the oven or even better in the toaster with butter and jam the next day. I hope you all enjoy it.
