I'm Aberdonian but moved to Vienna almost 6 years ago. You've just made me one happy man!!!

With golden syrup and butter it’s heaven on the tastebuds. Heaven!

I’m Australian and motorhome in the UK quite a bit. I found these in the north of Scotland and I really intended to ration myself to maybe one a day, but they one of the tastiest things I had there, so a pack would go very quickly. Kind of scone and croissant like, but salty. Bluddy luverly.

Lovely, the Doric Croissant. One of my favourite treats. Equally at home with savoury or sweet toppings. Originally made with all the butter, lard & salt so they'd stay fresh on multi day trips to sea on fishing trawlers.
Used to be a wee shop off of Union street that did cheese rowies ... I used to time it so I'd get there while they were still warm from the oven.
Whenever I eat them I think of sitting down with my Granddad on a Saturday afternoon, big bowl of homemade scotch broth & rowies that had been warmed in the brown paper bag under the grill then slathered with salted butter. Simple pleasure but a happy one.
Many thanks for sharing the recipe with everyone, they get to make their own happy memories with a wee buttery treat.

I like to add a wee bit of mustard powder in the dry mix and then grated cheese in the folds so that they come out nice and cheesy

[gaggymott]

I’m way late to the party I am. Welsh here living in Wales with my Scottish husband and Mother in Law. I bake a lot and I’ve introduced them to Bara Brith and Welsh cakes, but MIL is from a family of bakers in Cullen so I’ve been learning your recipes to add to my repertoire and my lovely mum in law really loves everything you’ve taught me to cook ❤

[carolinemunro]

Love them heated up in the toaster so they are crispy 😋

Looks wonderful - I am British (Welsh) in Colorado and I am making these for our Burn's Night!!! Thank you so much!!!

Love your Natural accent. My family was from Scotland heritage but have been in the States since early 1800's. Traditions were lost in the years along with many things, and I've been researching over the years. Cannot wait to give these a go. Usually we are making Biscuits for breakfast, which are completely different from a normal English biscuit. Our biscuits are made from flour, bread and milk very similar to a roll but without proofing or sugar. Goes great with sausage and gravy, or putting an egg with cheese on it.

My dad came from Keith in Banffshire and we would spend summer holidays visiting my granny in Keith. Butteries were our favourite breakfast and I think we had them most days! As we live in the Midlands and granny is long gone, it's a long time since I've had a buttery, thank you for sharing this, I will definitely be trying this one out x

[chrishewitt]

As a Huntly loon, now ex-pat Aussie, thank you Cheryl... I'm so making this this weekend! I love my butteries...

[jeanwalker]

I’ve never heard of Butteries before, oh how I’ve been missing out! You have inspired me to have a go at these! Thank you for telling us you have a small oven, because it’s inspiring to see how you make everything so doable!! I love your down to earth style, nothing very fussy or pricey, shows us how a home cooke can create some very awesome dishes!!!❤️👍🏻👏🏻💗

[BelleWhittington]

These look marvelous! I have never heard of these, but am going to make these in my iron skillets to add a crispy bottom to them! Thank you for this love recipe and video. I am drooling!

[ponderouspathfinder]

Haha! I just posted on another video asking you to make these, I watched this 2 years ago and that’s how I found your channel!! My goodness! My almost 47 year old brain likes to forget! 😂😂 Glad I searched for it! You make it seem so simple!

[MartinAhlman]

These I can eat, the croissants I can't. Proper food!!! Thank you for this.

[MrsKathPW]

Thanks for the explanation. I'm reading a book set in Aberdeen at the mo, and the characters seem to be constantly eating these. Image searches don't really explain what they are, this is great, thanks.

[lynclarke]

Mouths watering. Thank you for an excellent video. I really miss the Scottish bakery.

[erinmcgrathejm]

These are new to me…but something I KNOW I would love! Thanks for sharing this, Cheryl! 😋❤️
