Soda bread with sweet, spiced apples
Bread
I love soda bread for its not-too-sweet taste and chewy texture. I’m not a skilled baker, but soda bread is simple enough and doesn’t require me to shape dough into leaves (or anything of that nature that would immediately throw me into a cold sweat). ☺ The traditional soda bread with raisins or currants is always a favorite, but this time I wanted something slightly sweeter and more seasonal. <br /> <br />For this recipe, I was inspired by Jennifer McGruther’s brown soda bread with currants and flaked oats in The Nourished Kitchen. Instead of the currants and oats, I used Honeycrisp apple bits that I baked with spices and brown sugar. I modified the dough accordingly to accommodate the additional moisture from the apples, and also doctored it up with spices and sugar. McGruther advises letting the dough sit for hours, but I skipped this step because I wanted to eat soda bread for breakfast! <br />
