These could be thought of as a quick version of soda bread.
Serves 4
Sift the flour, soda and salt THREE times. Slowly beat in the buttermilk until firm dough forms. Knead for 30 seconds. Shape into four two-inch circles, 1/2-inch thick. Place on a lightly greased griddle over medium heat. Cook for 7 to 8 minutes on each side (or until lightly browned). Serve warm with butter.
