St. Patrick’s Day snack “parfaits” are a savory alternative to serve to your leprechauns this holiday!  Now that March is here all the shenanigans are getting underway…but celebrating doesn’t have to be hard!  Each year I try to come up with a few ideas for St. Paddy’s day fun.  Cupcakes, soda bread, krispie treats are all goodies we’ve indulged on during the days leading up to the 17th!  I’m sure I’ll still serve up some sugar…but I thought I’d try a new twist this year!  I hope you love this SUPER easy snack idea and a festive way to dish it up!  Keeping it simple & savory today…

Irish Soda Bread…with a Twist

Irish soda bread is something I serve every St. Patrick’s Day!  It’s a holiday tradition my family loves and looks forward to each year!  Typically, Irish soda bread calls for caraway seeds and raisins…neither of which are favorites of my boys.  Tweaking the recipe allowed me to omit certain ingredients and make room for new ones!  But even though there’s an unexpected flavor, this rendition has the same unique texture with a dense, soft & crumby inside with slightly crisp top.  It’s a delicious bread for a holiday breakfast, a snack, or to serve aside your corned beef and Irish stew.  You’ll love how easy it is to bake this quick bread without any fuss!
