Directions
St Brigids Oaten Bread from Ireland, These chewy bread-cakes have been fed to children in Ireland for years, in the belief that vigorous chewing would strengthen their young jaws The children of today like them because they are fun to eat And because they are low in fat and high in fiber, they are definitely healthful The loaf is cut in quarters, or farls before it is baked This was sent to me from a friend in Belfast I doubt that you can get much more Irish than that! *New NOTE -2/27/08* The recipe now has new instructions from Ireland and they make the world of difference! I have added my pix of the bread made using the new method , This is fantastic! I love it! I made a mistake the night before and used 1 75 c oats and 2 c buttermilk The next day I just followed the recipe and added 1/4 c sugar I baked it for 30 mins and it came out wonderfully! The dough was sticky but I didn’t add extra flour Thanks! This is a wonderful healthy recipe and is going into my favorites cookbook!
