this appetizer so irresistible. The moist soda bread, filled with raisins and caraway, perfectly

Directions
IRISH SODA BREAD

  • Put oatmeal in food processor, pulse until finely ground.
  • Pour into large bowl, add rest of ingredients through caraway seeds, mix well.
  • Pour buttermilk in and stir quickly until well combined.
  • Shape dough into round ball (about 6" in diameter). Put on baking sheet.
  • Place in top half of oven and bake 30 to 40 minutes until lightly browned on top. When you tap
    the top it will sound hollow. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
TOPPING

    of smoked salmon, garnish with dill.
  • Enjoy chilled or at room temperature.
