Ingredients

  • Gluten-free nonstick cooking spray
  • 4 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • teaspoons baking powder
  • teaspoons baking soda
  • teaspoons kosher or fine sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • cups buttermilk or dairy-free buttermilk substitute

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Generously spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cream of tartar. Mix on low until fully combined.
  • Combine the eggs and buttermilk. Add to the flour mixture and mix until it comes together and forms a stiff dough. Transfer to the prepared pan. With a sharp knife, cut a cross about ½-inch deep into the top of the dough. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until browned and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.  Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. Cool for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.

Notes

Traditionally, soda bread is baked in a round pan. I bake mine in a loaf pan so that uniform slices can be cut.

    What’s a dairy free buttermilk substitute? And can you add currants or raisin to this?

      Hi Jessica,

      To make a dairy-free buttermilk substitute, you can add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar to every 1 cup of plain dairy-free milk or yogurt and let it sit for 5 minutes to “sour” before using. And yes, currants or raisins should work just fine in this. Enjoy!
