1 tsp unrefined sugar or molasses
425 ml soy or other plant based milk

I'm curious as to why you need a egg replacer in this bread. Surely just omitting it would be a better option, it's not like traditional sofa bread has an egg in it in the first place. At least not the traditional Irish soda bread I know.

I love soda bread and I love eating it on the sofa...

Only reason I can find is to keep it completely vegan. As you've said, the traditional version doesn't include an egg either.
