Hargadon'S Brown Soda Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 cups coarse whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon salt
2 large eggs
1 1/4 cups buttermilk

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Butter and flour a 9 by 5 by 3 inch loaf pan.
IN a large bowl, stir together the day ingredients.
Make a well in the center.
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs and buttermilk.
With a wooden spoon, stir the egg mixture into the dry ingredients.
Spoon the dough into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula the had been dipped in water or buttermilk.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean and the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
Turn the bread out onto the rack and let cool, right side up, for about 1 hour to make slicing easier.
