Irish Soda Bread Rolls

March 14, 2014 · 4 Comments

IMG_3609Chilly afternoons in mid-March call for baking, and because it’s almost St. Patrick’s Day Irish Soda bread sounds about right. But rolls sounds like a better way to share, and cranberries are just the kind of tart sweetness I’m craving. The simplicity of this dough makes me question why I haven’t made this bread more often, since it requires no resting time, and bakes up quickly. The dough resembles a rough biscuit dough, but when I brought out my pastry blender it reminded me more of making pie dough. Oh, I want pie, I can’t wait for this summer pie. Oh, and I love curd, but since I only had marmalade on hand, I found it was necessary to add a dollop of this fruity sweetness to a warm crumbly roll. These Irish soda bread rolls would work well with a St. Patrick’s Day Whiskey Tasting atop each guest’s place setting.IMG_3611Irish soda bread rolls IMG_3593 IMG_3597 IMG_3598 IMG_3600 IMG_3615 IMG_3617 IMG_3623 IMG_3629


Irish Soda Bread Rolls

Ingredients {Makes 18 rolls}

4 cups – All Purpose flour

1/4 cup – Granulated Sugar

1 teaspoon – Salt

2 teaspoons – Baking Powder

2 tablespoons – Sesame Seeds

4 tablespoons – Unsalted Butter {cold and cubed}

2 cups – Cranberries

1 1/2 cups – Buttermilk

1 large – Egg {plus 1 yolk}

1 teaspoon – Baking Soda

1 tablespoon – Heavy Cream

Recipe {Adapted from Martha Stewart}

Preeat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and sesame seeds in a large bowl until combined. Cut in butter with a pastry cutter, until the mixture appears like coarse meal, then stir in cranberries.

In a small bowl, whisk the buttermilk, whole egg, and baking soda until well combined. Pour the buttermilk into the flour mixture, and stir with a rubber spatula, until the liquid is absorbed and begins to hold together {slightly like rough biscuit dough}. Transfer dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 16 equal pieces. With floured hands, roll each into a ball and place on the baking sheet in 3 rows of 6, making sure each roll is touching the surrounding ones.

In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolk and cream together and the rolls. With the tip of a paring knife, cut a 1/4-inch-deep X on the of each. Transfer to oven, and bake, rotating halfway through, until golden brown and a wooden skewer comes out clean when inserted into center {40 minutes}. Remove from oven, transfering the baking sheet to a wire rack, and separate each roll . Cool to room temperature before serving with plenty of salted Irish butter or marmalade.

I love everything about entertaining. Flowers are my weakness, a slice of homemade pie makes my heart sing & I’m a sucker for wedding videos. Travel is a constant source of inspiration and motivation. I dream about these things, it’s true. But what I love most, is working with amazing people to create meaningful & unique celebrations…..

This week may have been a lot but at least it ende This week may have been a lot but at least it ended w. pretty flowers for little Adelaide! Her 3rd birthday may not be as big as her “Some Bunny is 1” or “Peppa Pig Muddy Puddles” celebrations but her loved ones are sure to make her special day “Berry Sweet”🍓🌸
E X P A N S I O N — "the act or process of expan E X P A N S I O N — "the act or process of expanding"💫

this year I choose to expand on the
lessons last year served us...
I expand upon all my visions, dreams & intentions
I aim to expand on love, abundance, health, joy, comfort, courage, creativity, adventure, calm, authenticity, w.e big or small that makes my soul sing & thus expand upon my growth.
But I wholeheartedly hope that this year can help others expand on all the good things they want as well -- especially in global terms🤍

I haven't set resolutions in years, instead I always set intentions -- little things that become part of who I am & in turn become the steps to bring all those images I'm inspired by, into life in my own way.

I'm simplifying even more & stripping it down, choosing to always show myself, & others,
more Grace. I quite enjoy this slow but intentional path. Yes, embracing a fresh new start seems appealing, but there’s much uncertainty still to face & we have a whole year ahead of us.

There’s time to get it done so no need to rush into it...show yourself & others some grace, be a Kind human always, because anything can happen✨

Adeus 2020... It‘ll be impossible to forget you, Adeus 2020...
It‘ll be impossible to forget you, you broke us, but you also reminded us how we resilient we are. Your chapter is closed, good riddance!!

Ironically my word for 2020 was “Bliss” yet despite all the grief, the heartbreak + emotional rollercoaster I think all of us, although at times hard, did see the silver linings this past year brought. Personally, I realized early on the immense amount of Bliss that was already present in my life, perhaps more so if this year wasn’t what it was.

No, there weren’t Big Blissful moments or travels, but there was so many moments to enjoy the simple pleasures of every day. More time in the garden, a newfound excitement in the kitchen, endless cloud gazing — birdsong listening — butterfly + dragonfly catching — soothing sunsets + always stopping to smell the roses moments. Blissful moments to create whatever it was I felt like doing, moments to appreciate what truly matters in life + what of that is what always needs to be present in life. The chance to escape in the safety of nature + loved ones. The blissful opportunity to rest, to mentally wander, to learn what stillness really is. 

I gave myself grace this year & a well deserved pat on the back, & I really hope you did the same!! As I sail into 2021 I remember just how important all these moments are for growth + Expansion…

Things won’t change right away but all I can wish for all of us in 2021 is abundance, health, unity, joy & Love🤍🤍
Want to wish you all & your loved ones a very Merr Want to wish you all & your loved ones a very Merry Christmas🤍❄️ this year certainly doesn’t feel the same, we’re not gathering w. our loved ones, in fact for many this holiday season has been even more stress inducing than other years. But it doesn’t mean it can’t be magical & wonderful & beautiful whether you’re with your kids, your parents or spending it alone. Don’t forget to make it special & honor your favorite traditions, even if just for yourself!!

May these final days of the year be calm, be love & may brighter days shine upon us all next year✨🌿
