Categories: Breads, Irish
Yield: 1 servings

1 tb Butter 1 ts Baking soda
4 c White flour 1 c Buttermilk or sweet milk
1 ts Salt

Rub the butter into the flour. Add the salt and soda, mix all well together
by running the dry ingredients through your fingers.

Add the buttermilk (or sweet milk) and stir into a soft dough with a wooden
spoon. With your floured hands, knead the dough lightly into a ball and
turn out onto a lightly floured baking sheet.

Flatten the dough into a circle 1 1/2 inches thick with the palm of your
hand. Make a cross in the center with a floured knife.

Bake at 425 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes.
