Irish Soda Bread Scones (Scottish White Bannocks)
Report
A classic Scottish and Irish scone recipe.
Share:
Ingredients
- 3 ½ cups flour
- ¾ tsp baking soda
- ¾ tsp cream of tartar
- 1 tsp salt
- 12 oz buttermilk
Instructions
- Sift all the dry ingredients together into a mixing bowl, holding the sieve high above the bowl to get as much air into the mixture as possible.
- Pour in the buttermilk, then mix to a fairly soft dough, first with a spatula, then with your hands. Dough will be a bit sticky, but don't overwork it, or the scones won't turn out light.
- Roll out onto a floured board and form into a round shape about 1/2" thick. Cut into quarters.
- Cook on a hot griddle or non-stick pan on high, for about 5 minutes, then turn, lower the heat and continue to cook for another 5 minutes. (These turned out very large, so you can make half the recipe, or make 8 scones with the full recipe too if you prefer a smaller size.)
- You can also cook the entire dough as a whole, just scoring it into quarters first.
- Remove from pan and cool slightly before cutting in half (horizontally;) using a fork gives a better texture. Serve as desired.
Notes
- These are the same thing, but with different names.
