Traditional Irish Soda Bread for Lughnasadh 🌻🍂🌞🌿
This bread is extremely easy to make, quick, and simple but delicious! Being a traditional and antiquated Irish recipe, it’s a wonderful choice of bread to make for Lughnasdah. Irish Soda Bread is also a bread that doesn’t keep for more than a few days, so it’s best for sharing with friends and family during a meal or celebration to ensure it’s all eaten quickly!
3 cups of white all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsps of baking soda
1 1/2 cups of buttermilk (you can substitute regular milk by adding 1 tablespoon of white vinegar)
Mix the flour and baking soda in a bowl, and then stir in the milk slowly, incorporating the milk in small increments. I used a wooden spoon to do this until the dough started to form, and then I switched and used my hands. Be careful not to over-stir or over-knead the bread.
Once the dough starts to form, place it on a lightly floured baking sheet and carefully shape it into a rounded disc, approximately 6” - 7” in diameter, and 2” thick.
Brush on melted butter over the top of the bread dough you have shaped, and sprinkle desired herbs on top. (I used rosemary and thyme) Then, cut an X into the top, or you could use any other desired symbol!
Bake at 400 F for 20 - 30 minutes, mine took about 26 minutes! Remove from stove and allow it to set on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. After an hour, the bread should be set and good to slice and share! I placed mine in a basket wrapped in a towel.

My heart rots behind its walls
I haven’t seen it in years, I do not trust myself with it anymore
My hands are bloody from scraping at the brick, mixing with the dried mortar on my palm
I’m sorry, I whisper to it
I’m so sorry
For the doughnuts:
½ cup warm water
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ÂĽ teaspoons (1 packet) instant yeast
4 large egg yolks
1/3 cup (65 grams) granulated sugar
2 ½ (319 grams) cups all-purpose flour
ÂĽ teaspoon fine salt
4 tablespoons (57 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
ÂĽ cup heavy cream
For the filling:
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
ÂĽ cup heavy cream
ÂĽ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the topping:
Âľ cup (150 grams) granulated sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter, melted
Preparations:
Make the doughnut dough:
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the water, zest, vanilla, yeast, eggs, and sugar. Gradually add in the flour then salt, mixing until absorbed. Add the butter and cream and beat on medium speed for 6 to 8 minutes, or until a smooth sticky dough forms. Remove the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 to 1 ½ hours.
For the cheesecake filling:
Meanwhile, make the filling.
In a medium bowl using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, cream, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy.
Finish the doughnuts:
On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough out to about ½-inch thickness. Using a round cookie cutter, cut out 6 rounds from the dough. Place on a large parchment-lined baking sheet spacing far apart. Cover and let rise until puffy, about 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the doughnuts for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed. Let cool enough to be handled.
In a shallow dish combine the cinnamon and sugar for the topping. Dip each warm doughnut in the melted butter, the coat in the cinnamon sugar.
Remove the cream cheese mixture to a piping bag fitted with a long filling tip. Insert the tip into the side of a doughnut and squeeze the filling inside to fill. Repeat for the remaining doughnuts. Top each doughnut with a dollop of the cream cheese mixture then drizzle with jam.
Doughnuts are best served the day they’re made.
for the dough:
320 g of wheat flour
120 ml of hot milk
one big egg
40 g of softened or melted butter
15 g of fresh yeast or 5 g of dry yeast
a teaspoon of sugar
a big pinch of salt
to lightly brush them before baking:
egg mixed with milk
First of all get a big bowl and put all your dry stuff in it. (Except yeast if you’re using dry one)Â
add an egg and butter
while you’re mixing it, put the milk in the microwave and measure out the yeast you need.
when the milk is still hot but not too hot (be careful, you can kill the yeast with too warm milk) mix it with yeast.
When milk and yeast becomes smooth liquid, add it to the doughÂ
And now you can use a mixer to knead the dough or just your hands.Â
When you have finished dough, cover it with something and leave to rise for 60 minutes.Â
After the 60 minutes, weigh the dough and make how many buns you’d like, put them on the baking sheet, and again
Leave them to rise for 30 to 40 minutes, they need to be covered!
Brush them lightly with the milk and egg mixture
Bake them! Heat your oven to 350F or 180C and bake them until they’re golden.
You can get creative with the toppings, you can make some more dough and make sun or flowers on top of them, to represent the harvest and the time of the year or as to represent a deity, you can add herbs of your choice on top, for example dried rosemary to bring happiness and protection, basil for confidence etc.Â
