Title: Currant-Orange Irish Soda Bread
Categories: Breads, Fruits, Citrus
Yield: 12 servings

2 c All-purpose flour
2 tb Sugar; as needed
1 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Baking soda
1/2 ts Salt
1 tb Fine shredded orange peel
3 tb Butter
1/3 c Currants
1 lg Egg; lightly beaten
3/4 c Buttermilk

Set oven to 375AA°F/190AA°C. Grease a baking sheet, set
aside. In a large mixing bowl stir together flour, sugar,
baking powder, baking soda, salt, and orange peel. Cut in
butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in
currants. Make a well in the center of the mixture.

In a small mixing bowl combine egg and buttermilk. Add all
at once to flour mixture. Stir just until moistened.

On a lightly floured surface gently knead dough to form a
dough (about 4 or 5 times). Shape into a 7" round loaf.

Transfer dough to prepared baking sheet. With a sharp
knife, make 2 slashes across the top of the loaf to form
an X, cutting all the way to the edge. Bake 30 to 35
minutes or until golden.

Serve warm.
