A traditional quick bread that uses baking soda for leavening instead of yeast, resulting in a dense, soft crumb and a wonderfully crusty exterior. This rustic loaf comes together in minutes and requires no kneading, making it a perfect accompaniment for soups, stews, or a simple slice with butter.

Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Aproximativ 5 min.
- 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, and salt.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 3
Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the flour mixture.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 4
Using your fingertips or a pastry cutter, rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Aproximativ 2 min.
- 5
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and the lightly beaten egg.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 6
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the buttermilk mixture. If using, add the raisins now.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 7
Use a fork or spatula to mix until a shaggy, sticky dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: A slightly sticky dough is perfect; overworking it will make the bread tough.
- 8
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a round loaf, about 18cm (7 inches) in diameter.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 9
Place the loaf on the prepared baking sheet and use a sharp knife to score a deep cross on top, cutting about 1cm (1/2 inch) deep.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Scoring allows heat to penetrate the center of the loaf so it bakes evenly.
- 10
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Aproximativ 35 min.
- 11
Transfer the bread to a wire rack and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Aproximativ 10 min.
