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 Originally made with all the butter, lard & salt so they'd stay fresh on multi day trips to sea on fishing trawlers.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.
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
Yer, we are from Stonehaven and now in Aus. Really miss Butteries, so I made this recipe. Gold star, hubby and kids were so happy. They didn't last long.
OMG! The slippery slope from Lorne sausage to rowies! I MUST try these, haven’t had one since my last trip home in 2014 (also Arbroath smokies mmmmmm..)
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!!!❤️👍🏻👏🏻💗
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!
I've made these twice now and my husband and I are ADDICTED...the only thing....I can't get my USA converted weights correct for butter and lard I always have it seap out....while rolling out each layer....it doesn’t change the look or taste it's just a bit messy 😂😂😂😂 But Thank-you SO much for your recipe I'm now following and going to give several of your recipes a try!!! We're in USA but my husband's DNA is Scottish and mine is Danish/ Scott and Irish no wonder we love the foods and music of your country ❤
Hi Cheryl, my Mum used to make these when I was a kiddy and we used to call them fatty cakes, we came from Yorkshire and it was about 70 years ago, I’m an oldie, and she also used to put raisins on top sometimes. I often do this when I have pastry left over, so it’s not wasted. It doesn’t rise as much but still tastes yummy. Thanks for your lovely videos, I really look forward to them. Love from Sandra.x
Im just back from gardenstown in Banff and tried Butteries for the first time! Omg I ate them the whole week with strawberry jam and since coming back to Glasgow I have struggled to find one as good! Aldi have them but they dont taste the best. Im going to try this recipe for sure! Looks amazing ❤ xoxo
i will definitely be making these tomorrow morning. i have been making your morton rolls recipe for the last few weeks(and your caramel tart-see my instagram and facebook photos)really enjoy your laid back style of presentation, and your skill in the culinary arts. thank you once again for sharing these recipes with us, from a happy wee edinburgh guy.
Those look so good. I’ve actually got some lard so I may give them a go, especially since its a long holiday weekend (Labor Day) here in the US.🏴🇺🇸
I've been to Aberdeen many times as a child. My family originally is from Brechin. On my father's side it's Glasgow. I've eaten all of these rolls etc..one thing I never enjoyed scones!!
So interesting how food changes from one village to the other. I lived in Pittenweem on the East Coast but never saw these. Mind you it’s farther south than Aberdeen but you’d think they would pop up in a bake shop or cafe. They look delicious.
My mum’s family moved to Aberdeen when the British left India (soon to be back to its original name (India is a British name) Bharat!) Her family are massive, and we’re quite the celebrities when they moved in the late 1940s. Whenever my mum goes back to see them, or if they come down to see us, they always bring a few bags of butteries. Unfortunately, my mum is now the eldest, having started as 4th out of 14, and is 96, so the trips are infrequent now. I was brought up in a place called Corby, which used to be known as “Little Scotland”, but I live quite a drive from there and so I can’t get butteries regularly. Your recipe will allow me to eat these again (in moderation, as they really are bad for you in excess, lol!) I’m going to make some this weekend and take them over to my mum. Thanks for this recipe.
@@billyaitken7461 exactly! Or potato soup, ham & beans, clam chowder, lol, can you tell I’m ready for Fall to be here? So stinking hot this summer and I just want to get the garden cleaned up and ready to plant for next spring. Then I can retire to my sewing,baking, and reading a good book before the fire for the long, cold, snowy Idaho winter. Have a great weekend, TeresaSue.
I will definitely be making these because I absolutely love butteries and I;m from Northumberland, I did make them about 30 yrs ago and they were a success but I am going to have another go.
On a weekend trip to Aberdeen to visit friends, I found that people had to get out to the bakery first thing on the Saturday morning, before the butteries were sold.
Hi Cheryl, first time for me baking “Rowies!” Fantastic, I’m from Arbroath but live in Devon. I did your morning rolls yesterday, very good, so went looking for Aberdeen rolls today and you have done them as well. Am I surprised😂😂😂 I wasn’t sure about the plain flour but they were delicious. You have a great channel and I love the name. Keep up the great work. Love the shots of the Firth of Clyde and Aran, must visit the island in our campervan some time soon. Spend a month in Scotland in September but we were way up North. Dropped into Arbroath for a pair of Smokies, yum yum. Cheers from Mike 👍🍷🥃
Instantly called a local poultry farm. I'll have to wait 'til nov. , but they sell pure goose lard (I've health issues with pork). On my list for sure! Thanks for sharing from the far north of Germany!
Hi Cheryl, we live in Turriff not too far from Peterhead. Def got great butteries over here in our bakers! Will def be trying these, love one with a bowl of soup x
I was born in Turriff. My parents moved to Canada but when we came back to visit these butteries were a favourite of mine. As I child back then mine were slathered in butter and lyalls golden syrup. 😮
I know this is late, but just butter is better, it's more authentic actually, batteries with lard is not the traditional recipe, it was started to cut costs.
nice Cheryl, I don't have Lard at home..ever..not sure where I could buy lard in the Netherlands, but they look fab a bit like our pain au chocolats ( but Dutch)I wonder iof lard would go with sweet , must try ;-)
I'm doing these now. I'm in Australia and even though it is winter my dough is quite loose after layering the butter and lard so I've popped it into the fridge to firm up a little before cutting them. Can't wait to try these! I'm also going to try your fish cakes tomorrow, but can't get cod. I'm in the countryside and can't get fresh fish so I'll have to use defrosted frozen whiting. I'll let you know how they come out . Hubby was an Army chef and he'd never seed them done with baked potatoes. We think they will be Wonderful compared to using mash.
Your recipes are going down a storm with my Minnesota friends, everything from Lorne sausage to Bakewell tarts. I Can't wait to try these, one of my fav things I eat when home. Just a wee question, could I freeze some of the dough? If I make all 12 I'd eat them all in one sitting!!!
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.

Many thanks for sharing the recipe with everyone, they get to make their own happy memories with a wee buttery treat.
That memory sound amazing man 🙌
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
That's a lovely idea! 😊
You put the cheese with the butter?? What kind of cheese??
@@tinkerbellwiz I use English Cheddar but you can use any flavourful cheese.
@@alejandrayalanbowman367 thank you very much
You can have cheese with a buttery but not in it !🏴❤️
Love them heated up in the toaster so they are crispy 😋
Good God! Would you EVER look at that??! Crisp, layered, buttery, salty, and ready for toppings! YES PLEASE! ❤❤❤❤❤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤗🤗🤗🤗
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
you can buy boxes of them now. 1 or 2 dozen box. come frozen just heat em up when defrosted.
All of my 4 visits I’ve stayed in Keith! Love Aberdeenshire and Buttries!
As a Huntly loon, now ex-pat Aussie, thank you Cheryl... I'm so making this this weekend! I love my butteries...
Yer, we are from Stonehaven and now in Aus. Really miss Butteries, so I made this recipe. Gold star, hubby and kids were so happy. They didn't last long.
We're from Insch and Inverurie, now in Spain. We always buy butteries when we're back visiting, so I can't wait to try this recipe!!
OMG! The slippery slope from Lorne sausage to rowies! I MUST try these, haven’t had one since my last trip home in 2014 (also Arbroath smokies mmmmmm..)
With golden syrup and butter it’s heaven on the tastebuds. Heaven!

So did my Gran! Perhaps all Yorkie Grans did - I'm a 75 year young Yorkie!😊
I remember my first rowie my grandad brought down from Aberdeen it was the best thing ever nothing on earth can compair
They look absolutely delicious Cheryl, everything you make looks yummy and perfect, l wish I was your neighbour, I’d be inviting myself in for tea.😋👍🤣
Me too 😋
Those rolls look delicious! I think you have one of the best channels on the net. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
These look amazing. I love how passionate you are about cooking. Thank you so much for your dedication Cheryl. Much love from Newcastle!
Oh hello there, these look good enough to gorge 😋💞
Oh these are dangerously good 😆

Butteries are amazing. I love them grilled, with Butter and marmalade
Looks wonderful - I am British (Welsh) in Colorado and I am making these for our Burn's Night!!! Thank you so much!!!
Love this recipe. Does look easy enough for even me. Pass me the jam!
I add mustard powder and some times i add cheese or bacon or onions cheese and herb or cheese and bacon yum
Im just back from gardenstown in Banff and tried Butteries for the first time! Omg I ate them the whole week with strawberry jam and since coming back to Glasgow I have struggled to find one as good! Aldi have them but they dont taste the best. Im going to try this recipe for sure! Looks amazing ❤ xoxo
I was always nervous about “puff pastry”. I can so do this!
Wow a no kneed bread / puff pastry hybrid - they look great 👍
i will definitely be making these tomorrow morning. i have been making your morton rolls recipe for the last few weeks(and your caramel tart-see my instagram and facebook photos)really enjoy your laid back style of presentation, and your skill in the culinary arts. thank you once again for sharing these recipes with us, from a happy wee edinburgh guy.
Thank you so much! :)
Derek let us know how you get on

These are next on my "what to bake?" list!
Ooh those look tremendous!!!i will be making these!👍👏❤
Wow nice vlog Cheryl
some butter and hot sauce does a treat, Byron Bakers
Those look so good. I’ve actually got some lard so I may give them a go, especially since its a long holiday weekend (Labor Day) here in the US.🏴🇺🇸

I’m from Aberdeen and now live in Florida 100% we will be trying this! Thanks 😊
Yummy!
This is very helpful ^^ I tried making a batch but didn't know where I went wrong. I'll be trying this another day :)
They look great, and yes I would eat them with butter and Marmite. Thanks Cheryl 😊
Wonderful! Going to try these today - thanks!
Ooooh ... my doctor would kill me if she knew I was looking at stuff like this. Thanks Cheryl! 🙂
So interesting how food changes from one village to the other. I lived in Pittenweem on the East Coast but never saw these. Mind you it’s farther south than Aberdeen but you’d think they would pop up in a bake shop or cafe. They look delicious.
they go as far south as montrose only for some inexplicable reason
Looks very much like croissant only without all the faffing around. I have to try this.

Looks suspiciously like puff pastry prep! Yummy
I made these today Cheryl and they were delicious thank you 😋
My sister likes to split them and add crispy bacon inside sometimes with ketchup too!
Oh my word I’m drooling like a St Bernard lol - waves from Anchorage Alaska 👋👋♥️♥️♥️♥️
Oh I will be trying these!❤
They look delicious Cheryl. Just like the ones I remember getting as a kid. The supermarket ones just aren’t the same.
I love these butteries, my favourite 🤩
Mercy me those look so good. TY.
Cheryl wow those look so amazing I want to try it ..they look so light . Like a croissant..thank you sherry from California
Thanks i'm going to give them a go .....yours look yummy!
Those look fabulous. I will have to try those once the weather cools a bit. I think they would be amazing with a bowl of stew. Blessings, TeresaSue.
Just what I was thinking😊. Stew or home made pea & ham soup
@@billyaitken7461 exactly! Or potato soup, ham & beans, clam chowder, lol, can you tell I’m ready for Fall to be here?

These look wonderful 💖
Very similar to making French croissants 🥐
I most definitely will be trying this recipe. Thanks for sharing Cheryl. 🙂❤️
A wee bit of lard 🤣
I’m making some tomorrow with cheese and herbs
Thank you, Cheryl. Looks amazing!
I know what I'm making this weekend...
Me too✌️😇

I was just thinking about these the other day. The universe clearly wants me to make some
Cheryl I love all your videos and recipes delicious meals Much love too you all 🙏🏻🇺🇸
Would like to try this, thanks
These look so yummy can just imagine how nice these taste
Instantly called a local poultry farm. I'll have to wait 'til nov. , but they sell pure goose lard (I've health issues with pork).
On my list for sure! Thanks for sharing from the far north of Germany!
originally made with salted butter hence the nickname 'butteries'
Will defi give these a go here in the Philippines Cheryl. I'm from Stonehaven, so miss my Rowies.
Great recipe I couldn’t get lard and used Stork instead and this worked well. Best Rowies I’ve had since Aitkens in Aberdeen closed.
The Bread Guy in Thistle street makes them with lard and butter.
Oh my those look delicious! Gonna try them this weekend. :)
Ooh, I’ve got to try this ! Thanks Cheryl ! 💕
Great recipe.
Those do look super yummy. I'll have to make some when it gets cooler here. Summer's not done with us yet in the upper Midwest, lol. 32C today.
Thanks Cheryl 🙂
great with soup!..
Can't wait to make them. Blasta
Aikens Rowies were the best no one has managed to get them same since he got sent down and all the bakers closed, Shame he didn’t sell the recipe!

Looking delicious. Can vegetable shortening be substituted for the lard? Or would more butter be a better choice?
I know this is late, but just butter is better, it's more authentic actually, batteries with lard is not the traditional recipe, it was started to cut costs.

I am going to try coconut oil instead of lard.
Butter and lard, thank you, a far cry from the local prepacked palm oil and rapeseed oil junk. I’ll try this.
Yum! Will definitely make these soon.
I'm doing these now. I'm in Australia and even though it is winter my dough is quite loose after layering the butter and lard so I've popped it into the fridge to firm up a little before cutting them.

my wife uses Flake + potatoes
Great recipe! I see this over creamed chicken instead of pastry but i am all for jam and butter as well.🤭
