Mix the flour, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
Add the buttermilk and knead briefly, only until the dough comes together.
Shape the dough into a round loaf and place it on a greased tray.
Cut a deep cross on top and put it in the oven.
Bake until the loaf rises and the center is cooked, then cool on a rack.
💡 Tip: Mix the dough only until it comes together; overworking soda bread makes the crumb tough.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm slices with butter, soup, or a simple breakfast plate.
