Instant Pot Irish Soda Bread

Ingredients

• 3 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons of sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup raisins
• 1 egg
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1 1/2 cups buttermilk

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl mix flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda.
2. Add olive oil to dry mixture and stir with a fork, evenly distributed throughout the dry mix.
3. Make a well in the center of the mixture. Add beaten egg and buttermilk and mix in with a wooden spoon until dough is too stiff to stir.
4. Add the raisins and fold over with your hands until mixed.
5. Dust hands with a little flour, then gently knead dough in the bowl just long enough to form a rough ball.
6. Lightly spray a non-stick spray into Pyrex bowl. Then add dough into Pyrex bowl.
7. Cover bowl with tinfoil
8. Add 2 cups of water in the bottom of your IP pot. Using a trivet or steamer basket rest Pyrex bowl on top Pyrex bowl in. You never want the bowl to touch the base of the IP as it is too hot and will burn your bread.
9. Pressure cook on High for 50 minutes, then do a complete natural pressure release.
10. Remove Pyrex dish and remove foil.  Then allow it to cool before removing the Irish soda bread from it.
