Where do you get currants? Are they dried? Do you think I could use chopped up Craisins instead ?
By the way, is it ok to use expired milk for the milk/vinegar? My mom always used milk that was past its “best by” date (and smelled sour) for her banana bread that calls for baking soda/baking powder and sour milk. Would that work the same way for all your recipes that call for “buttermilk” or should I add a bit of vinegar to it anyway?

Hi Lorraine! So glad you enjoyed the bread! What you did is perfectly fine. I tend to make extra “buttermilk” because I use it in so many other recipes. I also prefere plain ole white vinegar. Thanks so much for your kind words and I am sure we’ve probably met at a MOCHA meeting! I go to the one in Highland Park. Are you going to the FAAN conference in April? Maybe I’ll see you there!

Same to you, Kelly! Bread was great success Question re the soymilk: Was I to combine 2 tablespoons vinegar with 2 cups of soymilk and then measure out 1 1/2 cups of the combined mixture? The amount of vinegar seemed high to me so I did 1 1/2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar with 1 1/2 cups soymilk as I do for vegan cupcakes. The bread was great, but I’d like to make it again following your recipe exactly. Thanks for the clarification. And I love your site! I am a MOCHA mom-perhaps we have met!

Hi there! I have not researched a way to make my bread gluten free. But I would recommend that you use whatever gluten free flour blend that works, and try it out cup for cup in my recipe. Let me know how it works for you!

Have you found a way to make soda bread gluten free? I am wondering if rice flour would work … maybe I’ll have to try it and let you know?

This recipe looks great! I am about to make it for my egg allergic daughter’s class for a St. Patty’s Day party tomorrow. Thanks so much!
