Tastes pretty good. It didn't rise either time I made it though.

Loved this - baked it in a 8" cake pan. I added another tablespoon sugar since my husband likes things on the sweet side. Brushed the top with a little melted butter and buttermilk.

Ok. I panicked after placing my bread in the oven and scrolling through the "add salt" reviews. I had noted them prior to preparing this and completely forgot. I literally sprinkled a minescule pinch over the top. Not sure if it made a difference.... Just pulled it from the oven rubbed it with an 1/8 tbsp. Of butter and tap. Of raw honey. Bravo! I will make this all year round. So easy. So incredibly delicious. I didn't know i like Irish soda bread until today. HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!

Delicious!!!!!! Made this recipe and LOVED IT!!!! I've had many irish soda breads and this one is the best. I did listen to the viewers and added 1/2 tsp of salt,but I also sifted the flour,baking soda,sugar and salt. So it would be lighter.( I hate it when the bread comes out heavy). I mixed everything in the bowl, didn't even touch my counter. DO Not over mix. Once it came together I put it on a cookie sheet, sprayed with baking spray. Left it out for 5 minutes at room temp. covered with a clean dish cloth. I brushed the top with butter and sprinkled granulated sugar.Half the bread was gone in 5 minutes. I guess I'm going to make another one for St. Patty's Day....lol

Loved this bread. I made a loaf and added salt as others mentioned. The first one came out GREAT And had to make another. The only thing I will say is be very careful not to over handle the dough or over mix. One loaf came out very "rubbery" I baked it on a baking stone and cut the top in an x shape. U can't go wrong with this recipe!!!

I love this bread! I left out the raisins and added two tablespoons of honey. My kids love it and they don't like anything! Way better than any other recipe I've tried.

This is a wonderful recipe. The only addition I made was to coat the top with butter and buttermilk and cut the customary X in the center. Otherwise, wonderful!

Made this for St. Patty's day for both mine and boyfriend's works. After reading prior reviews I also added some salt. Still a little bland, so I think next time I'll add some spices for the heck of it. Other then that, really easy and came out decent!

I used what I had on hand. Instead of buttermilk I used Chobani Honey Yogurt along with milk to make one cup and added juice of 1/2 lemon to that. I also used 1/2 tsp salt (as someone recommended). The dough was quite dry but working it well help it to adhere. Baked in a small round oven safe dish (sprayed with Pam) cut a large X on top before putting into oven. Brushed with melted butter and milk and baked according to directions. My son commented on how good it was and I thought it was wonderful!! A little bland, but with butter it was great! Would do this again.
