How to make Soda Bread Pizza with Roasted Peppers, Goats Cheese and Rocket

Soda bread is a very traditional Irish bread. The dough doubles up extremely well as a pizza base. It is so simple and quick to make. I love the idea of home made pizza, but rarely make it because of the time it takes to rise and prove the yeast based pizza dough. As there is no yeast in this recipe, it makes the process slightly quicker and easier.

serves 2/3 people
200g white flour
300ml buttermilk or natural yoghurt
1 tsp of bicarbonate of soda/bread soda
a pinch of salt, pepper and sugar
1 jar of char grilled or roasted peppers
A handful of rocket
A small round of goats cheese
2 heaped tbsp of tomato purée mixed with 1 tbsp of olive oil.

Method:
Mix the dry ingredients for the base in a bowl. Add the buttermilk, and bring the mixture together until you have a slightly sticky mixture. Transfer the dough to a baking tray lined with baking parchment and spread out into a square. Spread the tomato purée and olive oil mixture over the base. Now add the rocket, followed by the peppers and top off with the goats cheese, roughly torn into chunks.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for about 30 minutes.

No, you can just grease the tin. Grease it and then give it a good dusting of flour and it will be absolutely perfect!

I love your traditional Irish recipes. Not sure where I can find the ingredients.I'm sure I can..I will check out stores here in the Dallas area to see what I can find...I really want to try this...

@toddalst Hi! I have just been receiving your comments. Thank you so much, so kind of you!

@toddalst @toddalst If you cannot find natural yogurt or buttermilk, squeeze 1/2 a lemon into 1 litre of whole fat milk and allow it to sour. What you need is the acidity in this to react with the bicarbonate of soda to make the bread rise. The flavour will be just as good.

Brilliant! Thanks so much! I hope you enjoy it!

My mam and gran, from Mayo use sour milk in the soda bread. I think it's because of my family being dairy farmers, than anything else. It works really well if you cant get buttermilk.

I never thought of making a pizza with soda bread. Thanks!!

Do you have to put the dough on the sheet or can I just grease the tin?
