Inspired by Ina Garten's Irish soda bread, this simple vegan soda bread recipe features raisins and caraway seeds for a flavorful take on a traditional St. Patrick's Day favorite.
- 4 cups all-purpose flour (plus more for kneading)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt
- 1 tablespoons caraway seeds
- 1/2 stick vegan butter (cubed and frozen (4 tablespoons))
- 1 1/2 cups unsweetened (plain coconut yogurt)
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 1 cup dried currants (or raisins or mixture of the two)
-
Preheat oven to 375˚F and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Measure all ingredients, making sure your butter is frozen.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt together until combined. If you're using caraway seeds, they would also get mixed in now.
Use a pastry cutter or a fork to cut the butter into the flour mixture, until the butter seems mostly mixed in and the mixture looks like little peas.
Stir in the yogurt, orange zest, cranberries and raisins using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until combined and you have a wet dough.
Flour your work surface and roll the dough out of the bowl onto it. Gently roll the dough into a ball and dust the outside with flour. Score a cross into the top of the dough and transfer to your baking sheet.
Put the loaf into the oven and bake for 45 - 55 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool completely before slicing.
