There are two things I do every St. Patrick’s Day, plant sweet peas and make Irish soda bread for my family.
Did you know it is lucky to plant peas on St. Patrick’s Day?
I may need a little luck with my sweet peas, but I won’t be needing any luck with this recipe because it is delightful and would surprise many! No one would guess there are no eggs or dairy involved, and best of all you can make them in one bowl for easy cleanup.
How this Vegan Irish Soda Bread recipe Came about
The hardest part for Lydia becoming a vegan was the homemade baked goods. That first Christmas was really hard for her with all of the cookies and cakes being served. I decided to create some really tasty vegan baked goods. This was my first vegan recipe.
Below is my original non-vegan recipe and next to it in bold are the easy vegan adjustments made. It really mixes up fast and has a wonderful texture and touch of sweetness to it…everyone should have a little sweetness in their life!
Ingredients Needed
- 3 cups flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 egg, lightly beaten (vegan – remove)
- 2 cups buttermilk (vegan – 2 TBSP apple cider vinegar + 2 C almond milk, combined & let sit for a minute)
- 1/4 cup butter, melted (vegan – 1/3 cup canola oil)
How to make vegan Irish soda bread
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
- Combine flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl.
- Making a well in the center, add the eggs and buttermilk and whisk them together, combine in the flour mixture. If making the vegan, blend almond milk, and oil and whisk together, combine in the flour mixture.
- Stir the melted butter into the bowl until combined.
*It will look a little lumpy before you add in the butter. The vegan version already has oil in it and will be smooth. - Pour the batter into the prepared pan, and bake for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the bread comes out clean.
- Cool on a wire rack.
- Wrap in foil for several hours, or overnight, for best flavor.
