Irish soda bread is a good quick bread to make. I do very well with the recipe from the Better Homes & Gardens cookbook but my friend (who cooks a lot) tells me almost any recipe will do.
But people LOVE my soda bread and I think my secret is that I bake it in a cast iron frying pan.
I used to make a low-fat one, when I was dieting years ago; but I’d like to try a “real” one, and I hadn’t thought of putting it in the cast iron. (I always did it in a layer-cake pan.)
Will try!
