A quick and easy vegan Irish soda bread with a tangy honey mustard glaze, perfect for brunch, cozy dinners, or St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. This bread is moist, flavorful, and has a beautiful golden crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ½ cups (440 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 ¾ cups (420 ml) unsweetened plant-based milk (almond, oat, or coconut milk)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (optional)
  • For the honey mustard glaze:
  • 2 tablespoons vegan honey substitute (agave or maple syrup)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, sea salt, and sugar until evenly combined.
  3. In a separate bowl or measuring cup, combine the plant-based milk with apple cider vinegar and let sit for about 2 minutes to create a vegan buttermilk effect.
  4. Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients, add olive oil if using, and gently stir with a wooden spoon until just combined. The dough will be sticky but not too wet; avoid overmixing.
  5. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a round loaf about 7 inches in diameter and 2 inches thick. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Score a deep ‘X’ about ½ inch deep across the top of the loaf with a sharp knife.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Tent with foil if crust browns too quickly.
  8. While baking, whisk together the vegan honey substitute, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar to make the glaze.
  9. As soon as the bread comes out of the oven, brush the honey mustard glaze generously over the top.
  10. Transfer the bread to a cooling rack and let rest for at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Notes

If dough is too dry, add more plant milk a tablespoon at a time. If too sticky, dust hands and surface with flour. Use a sharp knife to score the bread deeply. Tent with foil if crust browns too fast. Glaze while bread is hot for best flavor and sheen.
