I love making simple plant-based bread like my Oat Flour Bread, 2-Ingredient Bread, Vegan Keto Bread Recipe, or Vegan Gluten-Free Bread. Making your own bread is extremely satisfying.
Is Traditional Irish Soda Bread Vegan?
No, unfortunately, traditional Irish soda bread is made with dairy, often including buttermilk, butter, and sometimes eggs. So classic Irish soda bread is not vegan but here I am showing you how to make a vegan version of the Irish soda bread in less than 30 minutes.
Ingredients and Substitutions
Five ingredients is all you need to make this soda bread!
All-Purpose Flour – I like classic high-grade flour for making soda bread. The recipe also works if you use spelt flour. Whole Meal Flour – Make sure to use fine whole wheat flour. Some versions are quite coarse and won’t absorb enough liquid, leaving the dough sticky. You can swap it for fine oat flour or just more all-purpose flour. Baking Soda – This recipe wouldn’t be a soda bread without baking soda. This is what makes this bread airy and with the signature flavors. Apple Cider Vinegar – Vinegar is the acidic ingredient that is necessary to trigger the transformation of flour into bread. You can also use lemon juice as it’s equally acidic. Soy Milk – Soy milk is the best option as it’s rich in protein, but the bread also works with oat milk or almond milk. Cashew milk and coconut milk are too low in protein to curdle properly.

What To Eat With Irish Bread
You can serve this bread with vegan butter as a side to soup or make delicious avocado toast. It’s a delicious bread, plain or toasted, that can also be used for baby jam toasts or sandwiches. You can also dip it into your favorite plant-based dip like:
