Air Fryer Irish Soda Bread is a delicious and quick way to make this traditional Irish bread using an air fryer. Here’s a simple recipe you can follow:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- Optional: 1 tablespoon melted butter for brushing
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the buttermilk. Mix the ingredients together using a wooden spoon or your hands until a dough forms. If the dough feels too dry, you can add a little more buttermilk, a tablespoon at a time, until it comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently for a minute or two until it becomes smooth. Shape the dough into a round loaf.
- Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes.
- Carefully place the soda bread dough into the air fryer basket. If needed, you can lightly grease the basket or use parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Cook the Irish soda bread in the air fryer for about 20-25 minutes, or until it turns golden brown on the outside and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Once the bread is cooked, remove it from the air fryer and let it cool on a wire rack. Optionally, you can brush the top of the bread with melted butter for added flavor and shine.
- Slice and serve the Irish soda bread on its own or with your favorite spreads, such as butter, jam, or honey.
