Irish Soda Bread
This is traditional one, but not molded traditionally

Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and grease 2 loaf pans.

1 1/2 C. Buttermilk, COLD
3 T. melted Butter
2 beaten Eggs
3 1/4 C. Flour (NOT self rising!)
2/3 C. Sugar
1 t. Baking Soda
1 T. Baking Powder
1 t. Salt
1 1/2 C. Raisens or Currants (as to preference)

In large bowl, sift the dry ingredients together. In another bowl (or blender), mix the rest of the ingredients, then add to the dry ingredients. Fold until mixed, and pour into greased pans.

Bake for 45 minutes, then mark top with an X. Cook for 15 minutes longer, buttering the top when down. Let it set for 10-15 minutes prior to eating.

There may be better receipts for this, however, I was given this by a great-grandmother from the auld sod!
