Jan'S Irish Soda Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups light rye flour or 2 cups whole wheat flour
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 large egg, beaten
2 cups buttermilk
oatmeal (large flakes)

Preparation

Combine the flours, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and brown sugar in a large bowl.
Mix the egg with the buttermilk and stir into the dry ingredients just to blend.
Dust the counter with oatmeal flakes.
Turn out dough and knead about 10 times to cover with flakes and form a round ball.
Place on buttered cookie sheet, cut a cross lightly on top of loaf and bake at 375 for 45-50 minutes or until it sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
If you don't want to use rye flour, use whole wheat.
It works just as well.
