In a separate bowl, mix together the egg, buttermilk, melted butter, and whiskey. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Transfer the dough onto the baking sheet and shape it into a round loaf. Use a sharp knife to make an "X" on the top of the bread. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the bread is golden brown. Serve with a dollop of whiskey butter for a tasty and unique twist on traditional Irish soda bread.
