Soda Bread with Cheddar Cheese, Olives and Red Peppers
Soda Bread with Cheddar Cheese, Olives and Red Peppers, a twist on the classic Irish Soda Bread. The addition of cheddar cheese, olives and pickled roasted red peppers give a subtle pizza flavour, making this classic bread even better, if that was even possible. No yeast, no kneading, amazing homemade bread ready in just about 40 minutes. My Cheddar Cheese Soda Bread is baked to perfection, and great on its own or as a side dish.

- 250 g wholemeal flour ( whole wheat flour)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 400 ml buttermilk

- Mix to combine, then pour over the buttermilk, and mix gently to bring the ingredients together into a dough.
- Flour a baking tray, and transfer the dough to the tray, shaping it into a ball.
- Flatten the ball gently, then use a sharp knife to cut a cross on top of the dough.
- Dust with more flour.
