Irish soda bread

I’m new to this and didn’t want to try something too difficult right off the bat. I was hoping to have some kind of homemade bread for breakfast without a huge time investment, and this turned out to be exactly what I hoped it would be. I didn’t have buttermilk, so I used water, apple cider vinegar, and some olive oil. I also threw in some chia seeds, hoping that would make it hold together a little better.

Any tips for other things I should try? I’m not necessarily trying to make it vegan, although it did come out that way.
