I had a Granny that was born in Ireland. She migrated to Australia in the 50s. Hence I’m an Aussie. She made Soda bread every time we visited. As well as tatie bread. I lost her in my early twenties and only had one or maybe two lessons on Soda bread. I wish I was more interested. She used to make it on a griddle not in the oven. When I tried this in my late twenties it wasnt anything like my Granny’s. Anyway I got a little disappointed. But here I am 58 doing your recipe and yippee I did it. Although Granny never used an egg I asked her to go with it with me and help. Lol. It’s beautiful. Although yes she used whole meal flour too I just had white on hand and I’m very happy. Thankyou beautiful for this recipe. Your the only one I found with butter just like Granny’s. Bless ya. 🌻
She must have been a lovely woman. Thank you so much for sharing this here. I'm glad my mum's recipe turned out well for you.
Love that you asked your mom about sharing her recipe. Even better that she agreed. Recipes are made to be shared with love.
I made this yesterday for St Patrick’s Day. I’d never made any soda bread before and it was delicious!! I made it for my parents too, my mum couldn’t get enough of it. My granda was from Ireland so she had memories of eating it when she was young and it was wonderful to be able to make something so meaningful and delicious. Thank you! 😊
Well done to you, Claire.
I love these traditional recipes from Mum! I'm sure she's so proud of the work you're doing with sharing the joys of cooking with the world.
I love learning that you actually bless the bread. I find it very unique!
I've always wanted to go to Ireland! But for now, I'll just put this bread on my baking list 😉 And u look EXACTLY like your mom!
my favorite part of making this bread is how happy it makes my family when I do.
I made the bread right after watching this and it was excellent.Takes very little time and is
so simple.Thanks for posting.
I love the story of your Irish roots!
+FashionByAlly thank you so much Ally, I'm delighted you liked it :)

Gemma! I'm Irish American and love all of your recipes. All of your baking is amazing. I been making your recipes and have found you to be a great teacher! My all time favourite is when you and your mom's apple crumble. Absolutely yummy!!! And of course your scones are the best:) Thanks so much for helping to motivate me to bake more!
Thank you! I made this on St.Patrick's day for my husband and his family, who have ancestry in Ireland. It was a hit! I've made it at least once a month since then because it's the only bread recipe I haven't goofed up! Thanks so much! Blessings to you and yours!
All the story about ur mom's baking and teaching u how to cook made me emotional. I learned how to cool from my precious mom God bless our moms❤️
I LOVE all your videos, but this one in particular is so special and I really like it. Ireland is gorgeous and so is the bread. Thank you and your mom for sharing =)
Im one of ur subs btw
+Candice Christie aw thanks. I appreciate it :)
+In The Kitchen With Jonny Your very welcome have a good day on purpose
What a gorgeous Irish soda bread Gemma, thank you for your mums recipe. It's beautiful. I love the tradition of the bread and the fairies 😊 love it ! Happy St Patrick's day to you and the family.
+FitAnge S Thank you :)
I really really miss everything about Ireland. What a beautiful and heavenly place on earth. So emotional watching Irish bread and remembering & recollecting my 15 years life in Ireland.
Gemma, thank you so much for explaining the cross and fairy cuts on the top! Can't wait to make it. Thanks again!
Well finally someone making the cross and actually saying what and why the cross. Thank you. Loved it! My recipe is the same except I put raisins in it. Delicious!
I made this recipe today and it's so gorgeous, my apartment smells divine. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for the video. Much easier to understand than just a recipe. 76% of my ancestors are Irish. Will try this recipe next time I make bread.
Glad it was helpful! Hope you like it!
I really loved this video. It's got a nice blend of everything nice: family, tradition, good food, and in general a good feeling. Thanks to your mom for letting you share this with us, and thank you for providing us with great recipes and fun videos every week :)
+corkscrewfork Thank you so much for watching. Really glad you liked this recipe :)
Since I have watched and analysed this video I have stopped buying bread instead I make it myself every week now and it always yealds together beautifully I am a very passionate baker and this is such a fun, easy, quick and inexpensive bread thank goodness that it's hard to find this bread in any English stores otherwise I wouldn't have an excuse to bake it.
And I know that they say that "us english people hate Irish people" but personally I've never met such friendly amazing passionate bakers as the Irish.
I would love to thank my Irish food teacher Mrs Mooney for giving me the amazing ability of how to be a successful baker I'm super proud. 💟🍴🍫🍦
Thank you for your kind words, Tasha. Well done :)
Lol....I'm half English and half Irish. Glad that somewhere back amongst my ancestors, they thought as you do!
Blessings,,!
Try beer bread so easy and so delicious.
I've never heard that in my life and I'm almost 40 years old... what a sad group of people you've had around you to hear them say that. Most of the English have Irish in them anyway so it would be pretty daft to say that.
@@biggerbolderbaking you didn't give what the oven temperature is that you turn it down to after the high temp. for 15 min. Would you be so kind to post here. You sound like my mam (Co. Carlow) and dad (Co. Sligo) I'm 82 so they are long gone. Nice to hear the brogue again. God bless.
Such a beautiful tradition. The blessing of the bread, the releasing of the fairies. I would love to visit Ireland and learn about its culture and traditions.
+creepycrawly101 Thanks so much for watching. Really glad you liked this recipe. Check out my website (biggerbolderbaking.com) for all of my traditional Irish recipes :)
I made my first Irish soda bread when I was 11 using my mom’s recipe. I’m MUCH older now and I still love this bread!
I loved Ireland when I went several years ago and I loved the breads, scones, porrage, & the cream soups. Love ur channel. It brings me back there.
Thanks a million! You can't beat the produce at home, too. :)
I made this Soda bread for the first time and I am pleased to say it was a hit! My family absolutely loved it! Delicious 😋
Well done, BR Raines. Delighted this turned out well.
Ugh....that leftover buttermilk trick gets me every time....love it.
I have to tell you that I haven’t been doing carbs for the past few months.
Today, I was just craving bread, and had to have some. I made a loaf of your Irish soda bread, and it was fantastic! It satisfied my craving, and was my best loaf from this recipe yet.
Seriously, this recipe is just out of this world.
Thank you for the glowing review. Much appreciated, Richard.
I made this bread today for my family as part of a traditional irish meal, and it is hands down by far the best soda bread recipe ive ever tried!!!! I was impressed at the dough's soft texture, it rose perfectly and wasnt dry at all once baked! thank you again for posting it, and know that people are actually using these recipes!
+amythenaturenut That's great to hear! Thanks so much for watching :)
This is a great recipe. I've made it a bunch of times and put my own spin on it. Thank you!
I loved the explanation of why it has a cross on the middle and the tips you gave to know if the bread is already cooked 😊 Congrats for such a lovely recipe!
+Andrea Amparán Sánchez Thank you so much, Andrea. Really glad you liked this video :)
Good God the cross is to facilitate even cooking
Made this last night to go with some Guinness corned beef and cabbage. Delicious with a huge smear of warm Irish Gold butter ! Thank you for sharing.
I used to buy my soda bread in Blackrock, Dublin - when I lived there more 20 years ago. Now I will finally bake the bread myself, blessings and all! Thank you for your family recipe and for your very nice story.
Oh wow. That's a long time. Waste no time and make your own Irish Soda Bread. Find the complete recipe here www.biggerbolderbaking.com/irish-soda-bread/
this makes my Irish heritage very happy.
I love the traditional aspect that you incorporated into this recipe
I made this bread this morning and it looks fantastic coming out of the oven. About to cut into it for lunch - can hardly wait. Thank you for the recipe.
Well done, you!
I've seen and read several different "authentic" Irish soda bread recipes but yours has a few 'tricks' that I have not seen before and your loaf turned out MUCH better than the others I've seen. Can't wait to try it out and see for myself!
I'm glad it turned out well for you! Well done, bold baker.
I never thought making a bread from scratch can be so easy! Fantastic Recipie, went right into my collection
+Mixter Muxter Delighted to hear that. Thank you so much for watching :)
I grew up in Belfast NI now live in Canada, we called it wheaten bread love it with strawberry jam yum, are soda bread was made with white flour, salt, little sugar, baking soda, buttermilk and kneaded the same way but bake on the top of the stove in a iron skillet have it with beacon and eggs for breakfast my husband makes it and he has learned our sons to make it the grandkids love it! Thank you for sharing enjoy the video have subscribed to your channel looking forward watching more of your video's thank you very much! Liz x
Thanks for sharing, Elizabeth! Always happy to see my Irish Bold Bakers!
I love the lore! Gonna wait till it Easter and make this with some soup just so I eat a blessed meal ♡
i absolutely love when you share traditional recipes from your Mom. I didn't have anything like that growing up so it's really beautiful to me. plus, i love the Irish music. ♡
+Kaitlin Persino Thanks so much, Kaitlin. Really glad you liked this recipe. Check out my website (biggerbolderbaking.com) for more recipes from my mum :)
+Gemma Stafford I watched the apple crumble episode! love that you were able to make a video in Ireland. i just adore it!
Love the traditional touch. No yeast these days, so I'm making this. And love that Kerrygold too!
LOL! "Jammy jam" I love that!
This might be my favorite of all your videos so far! I love the little bit of history you gave with the blessing of the bread and the releasing of the faeries. Really lovely :) and your bread looks beautiful!
+Morgan Dennis Thanks so much, Morgan. Really glad you liked this recipe :)
I have been wanting to make Irish Soda bread for years. Now I have, with your… your Mom’s recipe and it is so perfect. Thank you!
Well done, you!
This is awesome!! Love your channel!👍🏻 and I also loved the blessing of the bread, that's pretty cool!☺️ I've seen soda bread before, but I had never thought of it that way!
The first time I tasted homemade soda bread was from mum's best friend from Ireland.
I've never made Irish soda bread before and want to get it perfect the first time round so apologies to Gordon, Jamie and Delia but I've chosen Gemma's foolproof Mamma's recipe and being Irish goes highly in her favour, I feel strongly inclined to follow her lead. You had me at the history part of scoring the bread. I'm sold. 🌞
I do hope you enjoyed! Thank you for being here!
Hi there, sorry to ask like this but would you mind giving me the measurements in a reply if you don't mind ? I simply cannot access my browser at all to visit Gemmas website for the recipe .I'd really appreciate it if it's no trouble.
My Dad baked soda bread in the 1970s when we had a bread shortage. It was so nice!
The bit about the fairies was new to me. Loved using the left over liquid in the jug. I tend to use an egg and freeze the left over in ice cube trays. Love soda bread, must be the Irish in me a few generations back.
Looks delicious Gemma!!! I'll never forget the first time my mother taught me how to make Irish soda bread! The recipie had been in our family for decades! I laugh when I remember how scared I got when the crust was hard! I thought it had burned and started crying because I assumed we didn't leave enough one for the fairies to get out!!! After my first bite I changed my mind!! There really is nothing better than the family classics!
Thank you for bring back those memories!-Sara
+sara knox Thank you so much for watching, Sara. Really glad you liked this recipe :)
Thank you Gemma, and your Mammy for this delicious soda bread recipe ! Made it today and it came out perfect! Grandson cutting out yeast, so this recipe came to our rescue!
Glad you loved it! It's responses like these that make it all worth it :)
We are 2 Aussie’s who spent two & 1/2 weeks in Ireland last year. Fell in love with the Irish soda bread while we were there. Thick slices with loads of butter & a bowl of seafood chowder.. mmm we were in heaven. I made this recipe this morning & wow!!! It is so easy to make & super delicious. Crunchy crust with yummy soft centre. Tell your mum her soda bread is amazing. By the way, I did release the fairies too lol
Hi Loraine! I'm delighted you enjoyed my mum's Irish Soda Bread recipe. Well done. :)
Aussies* No apostrophe in plurals. 😛
I'm definitely going to try this! Looks amazing
As a son, I totally agree with your mom: teaching a child how to cook is the best gift you can give them, it's saved me from so much trouble! I'll try this recipe ASAP, I love soda bread! ♧♡
+Manel Mula Ferrer Glad you agree! Thanks so much for watching. Let me know how your soda bread turns out. I would love to see photos :)
I use your recipe every year for St Patrick's day, and it is the best recipe ever!! Thank you for ldoing what you do, I love your videos and that your recipes always turn out perfect!!

My Family goes back past 1600 in Ireland. HEANUE. Thank you for helping me to learn to cook the Irish way. My mom never did because she couldn't.
Delighted to hear that. Glad to have you here, Lisa.
This looks fab. Love the stories too. I'm actually going to be trying this for Paddy's day but I'll be adding some Guinness along with the Buttermilk. Hope it turns out OK!
Can't wait to hear how it goes, Warren! Cheers :)
Really insulting to St PATRICK to refer to him as "Paddy".
God bless Mammy Stafford!
+Aimee Scanlon yeah
Amen! And may He bless her daughter, Gemma, too! Amen and amen!
Amen

Cooking and baking is very special to me since I learned so much from mom, grandma and great-grandma, which is why I think this video is absolutely lovely. So personal! Thank you so much for sharing!
I love making my own bread so I will definitely give this recipe a go! :)
+EndingsAreHard Thanks so much for watching, really glad you liked this video. Let me know how your soda bread goes :)
+Gemma Stafford Hi Gemma, thank you for the reply! Funny you should ask how it turned out because I just took my loaf out of the oven half an hour or so and half of it is already gone. :D it worked perfectly and is so delicious. I will definitely add the recipe to my repertoire. :) thank you Gemma and Mammy.
You look so like your mum! Beautiful! 🍀💋
LucyFortuneMakeup yeah..u right
Comeback to this video after a few years. This video is still my favorite ❤️❤️❤️. I personally think that we should add a little bit of sugar to this bread, just to give nice flavor
Thanks for being here after all those years 😉
My auntie is Irish and i always loved her accent! your videos always make me smile :D lots of love from Portugal :)
+Ana T Thank you so much for watching, Ana. Really glad you like my baking videos :)
My Gran made this for me all the time,always looked forward to it with jam and butter,or cheese,God bless her cotton socks as my mom would say,growing up in Northern Ireland was special,thanks for bringing back those memories.🇨🇦☘️☘️♥️
Thank you so much for sharing the precious memories with me ! Hope you give my recipe a go! Really love to know what you think !
I am not Irish, although I have Celtic DNA. And I love all things Irish, particularly this bread! Can't wait to make it!
+Klimt Kahlo You're going to love how easy it is. Thanks so much for watching :)
+Gemma Stafford thank you so much for taking the time to reply! So very kind of you! 💖
+Gemma Stafford could you also please teach us a recipe for sweet Irish bread? Or is that perhaps not even Irish? In the USA they sell "sweet Irish bread". It is delicious...
So I can take the dough from the crazy bread recipe and make the rolls. Gemma if you don’t have an actually recipe for rolls, will you please please do one!😭
I was so excited to see this video! I visited Ireland with my choir last summer, and it is such a beautiful country! ❤️
+Tara Dickinson Thanks so much, Tara. Check out my website (biggerbolderbaking.com) for all of my traditional Irish recipes :)
Thanks for you recipe of Irish Soda Bread. I have been living in Ireland for two years and I have eaten soda bread. I loved it. Now, back in Spain, I can't find anything similar to it. I will make your soda bread and I will tell you the results. I hope it will bring my 5 senses back to the wonderful years I've spent in that beautiful island.
I hope it does as well! Thank you for the kind words - enjoy! :)
notification squad unite.

+Daniel Calzada yay!!! thanks for being here for launch :)
I dont know why but I rememberd the disney movie Brave when she was making the bless for the bread
Thanks Gemma , your explanation gives me lot of confidence and ease
So glad you're enjoying my video recipes. :)
this bread makes my day every time I make it. Thank you so much Gemma!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You looked like a model in that picture with your siblings!
When youre under lockdown with an urge to bake bread but discovers you have no yeast!
You can also find my NEW No Yeast Bread recipe here: www.biggerbolderbaking.com/hearty-no-yeast-bread-recipe/
Haha I'm here for the same reason.
& NO yeast to be had!! No bread in the stores!!! 🥴
Darling, I have everything to bake, JUST NOT this lovely way of baking, this lady and her mother are ARTIST, we are lucky they are sharing with us, stay safe and bake this great bread, I will do so as well.
F. Lockdown and masks
This just makes me so happy! I love the Irish feel of it all! 🍀
+Jaimie Dow Thanks so much, Jaimie. Really glad you liked this video :)
Loved this video! You can tell how much love you have for your home! Thanks for the recipe!
+Caitlin Waldrop Thanks so much, Caitlin. Really glad you liked this video :)
Please collaborate with how to cake it.
Omg yaaasss
Its interesting to see the combination of the old Irish beliefs with the newer christian ones in the story though it kinda surprised me like we gotta bless the bread ok fine sure, and now RELEASE THE FAIRIES xD
Catholicism contains a lot of pagan traditions. And one of my favorite things in most religious/spiritual traditions (whether I believe them or not) is that they often contain a grain of truth.
Sodabreads do fail if you don't make a cross and poke the quarter pieces. But it's for rising purpose rather than blessings. :P
your ring
RainbowAnimeCupcake iu
Hahaha
Right?! Blessing the bread as you score it so it doesn't explode when it rises is a very Old World religious thing to do. Releasing the faeries so they don't curse your bread is a very adorable, Old World Irish thing to do. I absolutely love it 💚🇮🇪☘️
That bread looks delicious, and God bless Mammy Stafford, indeed!!! I'm gonna have to make this with my Dublin coddle the next time I make it 💚
My mom is Irish too and she says the same about pulling it together with ur hands that's what make it's better and I love that part about the score is a blessing and the fairies
Delighted you liked the info! Thanks so much for being with us :)
Gemma Stafford Very welcome 😁
Don't forget to thank you mom. I will try this on Thursday. Thanks
