My stepmom's Irish Soda bread recipe (quickbread):
Mix together 3 cups of flour (my stepmom uses half white and half whole
wheat, I use all whole wheat), 1/2 c. bran, 1/2 c. wheat germ, and one
heaping teaspoon baking soda. Cut in 1-2 tablespoons of butter. Pour in
about 2 cups of buttermilk and knead into a dough (add in more flour as
necessary). Shape the dough into whatever you plan to bake the bread in (I
use a heavy cast-iron pan, and so shape it into roughly a circular shape).
Put a couple of cuts in the top so that the crust doesn't crack when it is
baking, and bake for about 50 minutes at 425 F. All the measurements are
approximate--my stepmom & I cook according to the "put in enough and cook
until done" school.  The entire process (except baking, but including
clean-up) takes about 20 minutes.
My dad & I have been known to eat two loaves of this stuff in a sitting,
just as soon as they're cool enough to eat!
