My mum always made rock buns – everyone likes ’em she said. they’re a bit like a rich cakey scone. can get a little dry after a say or so.
8oz sr flour
4oz sugar
4oz butter
4oz currents, sultanas, raisins (whatever you got)
pinch salt
1 egg
enough milk to make a stiff batter/ loose dough
Sugar to decorate
Mix the flour and sugar, and rub in the butter to bread crumbs.
add the currents and egg and enough milk to loosely bind. Add big dollops to a lined baking sheet. Sprinkle a little sugar on the top. They will spread a bit when cooking, but should turn out like rocks on a baking sheet.
Cook at 180ºc for 20 mins.
