ingredients
4 cups AP flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
3 tbsp sugar
2 cups buttermilk
1 egg (lightly beaten)
2 tbsp melted Irish butter (Kerrygold)
instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425º.
2. Sift dry ingredients together into large bowl.
3. Make a small well in the dry ingredients and add the egg, butter, and buttermilk. Mix dough together (works best by hand).
Note: you may not need all 2 cups of buttermilk
4. Once dough has pulled together, transfer to floured surface and knead lightly to form a circle.
5. Place dough ball on baking sheet (will be lumpy). Cut X in the top and cook at 425º for 40-45 minutes.
Note: Test the doneness by knocking; if it sounds hollow, it’s done.
