Ingredients

The ingredients are:

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 ounces butter
  • 3/4 pint buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 3 ounces granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Beat everything together to a thick batter EXCEPT the baking soda and vinegar.

  • Step 2: Heat a bakestone, griddle or frying pan to smoking hot and then add the baking soda and vinegar to the batter. Vinegar helps bring lift and lightness to batter; it was used in Britain as a raising aid to Yorkshire pudding when eggs were rationed.

  • Step 3: Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the surface and allow to turn golden on both sides. What size you make them is up to you.

  • Step 4: Spread each with lots of salty Welsh butter and stack in a pile before cutting in thick wedges to eat.
