Learn how Molasses Brown Soda Bread solves your baking struggles with 3 secret tips that make it soft rich and full of flavor every time

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsulfured molasses
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

    • Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
  • Make a well in the center of your dry mix and pour in the molasses, buttermilk, and melted butter.
  • Use a sturdy spoon or your clean hands to stir everything together just until the dough forms and the flour disappears. The dough should be soft but not overly sticky.
  • Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently 3-4 times to bring it together without overworking.
  • Shape the dough into a round loaf about 7 inches wide and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Score a deep cross on top with a sharp knife to help cook evenly inside.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes until the loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom. Internal temperature should be 200°F (93°C).
  • Remove the bread to a wire rack immediately and let cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing.
