The Best gluten free soda bread recipe

I have been making this gluten free soda bread for years and it is a staple in our house. My kids love it because it is soft and slightly sweet and it comes together in no time. There is no yeast and no rising so it is perfect for busy weeknights or last minute guests. It is also healthier than traditional bread because it uses gluten free flours and has less fat. I love that I can serve it with soup or stew or just slather it with butter for a quick snack. This recipe never fails and it always makes my family happy.
