Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan with cooking spray.

  2. Mix whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, oat bran, wheat bran, wheat germ, and baking soda together in a large bowl.

  3. Whisk egg lightly in a small bowl. Whisk in buttermilk. Pour over flour mixture, fold together with a large spoon until batter is moist.

  4. Pour batter into the loaf pan and smooth out the top. Use the spoon to trace a \"plus\" sign from edge to edge across the top.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 40 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 225 degrees F (105 degrees C), continue baking until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes more.

  6. Invert bread onto a wire rack. Let cool completely, about 1 hour.

Recipe Note

I worked hard to develop this recipe after returning from a trip to Ireland. It's as authentic as we could remember, and very healthy.
