I’m a one trick pony when it comes to St. Patty’s Day. Irish Soda Bread every year. Same Recipe. Same pan. It gives my life some sort of rhythm. But I’m feeling the need to branch out. And I’m not sure if “muffin-style” counts. So St. Patrick’s Day 2013, I’ve made a vow. I will make something new. This blog as my witness. Until then…

Irish Soda Muffins
yields about 22 muffins 

Click here for the recipe. Lightly grease 2 muffin tins. Bake at 375° for 18-20 minutes. Do a little jig. Slather a little butter. And enjoy!

Already thinking of ideas for next year—

  1. I needed to pick a soda bread recipe to try – I think the muffin idea is genius!

    LOVE these! Individual portions are the way to go!

    I am going to make these for the kids up at Cal-Wood on Friday morning. I will let you know how it goes. 80 hungry taste testers always give you good feedback but looking at the recipe I am confident they will be a hit.

  4. As we approach St. Paddy’s day, I have been thinking about all the meats/breads/potatoes recipes to make, and I love the idea of irish soda muffins because it’s a much easier portion control….plus having your very own is just cool. Great thinking!

  5. How fun are these! Great idea. A cool switch up from regular soda bread :)

  6. Love the Irish Soda Muffin Idea! And thanks for including me in your post!

  7. These look great! You’ve got me inspired to do a little Irish-gigish baking of my own. Might have to try out these puppies.

      Thanks for letting me know! Looks like I hid the recipe when I migrated my site over a couple months ago. All updated! Let me know if you have any other issues!
