A twist on soda bread, Irish Oat Scones
Soda bread came to life in Ireland sometime in the 1800's. Irish cooks had little time to bake. Breads leavened with baking soda rather than yeast were naturally simpler to make.
Original recipes combined flour, buttermilk, baking soda and salt. Over the years the recipes have become more elaborate. This recipe includes steel cut oats, dried cranberries and creates individual scones rather than 1 whole bread. Our twist on the soda bread concept is perfect for a party and delicious served with Irish stew.
