Tip
My original recipe said to bake for 15 mins, but I needed to do for quite a bit longer, I like my Butteries quite golden brown in colour, but some prefer them much paler, so 15-20 mins would be fine.
Butteries are a traditional snack or breakfast roll made in and around the Aberdeen area of Scotland. My parents are both from Aberdeenshire & I spent many long holidays staying with my grandparents in Aberdeenshire. I loved the local Butteries and we would take lots home to London to freeze and save for treats. Now I live "Down Under" & have a magic Thermomix I decided I would have a go at making some myself , as not much chance of anyone being able to smuggle me some over. This was my first attempt, but I was very pleased with the result.

Dutchgirl:
go with two teaspoons 👍
Made these today. Never made rowies before
They look the part but the taste not quite there, not sure what was missing.
i added 2 teaspoons of yeast.
How much yeast goes in
Tried them and they are good, a bit dense but probably my skills rather than the recipe.
Having eaten them for many years when in Aberdeen I now know these should be an occasional treat after seeing the ingredients!!
There's were great because I rolled them & lathered them in the fat & rested & repeated over & over. As good as the ones I've had in Aberdeen many times. However without this step, as my Aberdonian husband did, they came out too dense & more like bread! But thanks the ingredients make a perfect mixture!
Have you tried the Aitkens recipe in the Thermomix? Would LOVE the recipe if you have
My Dad is here next week - he's been instructed to bring 6 bags of butteries with him by my 7yo daughter!!
Oh my lordy lord!!!
I am an Aberdonian and always have to get my husband to make these for me. Now tho........theres nae stoppin this quine!!!
Heaps o butter when cold and butter and jam when hot!!!! My fat erse is so not going to thank you for posting this
How much yeast is needed in this recipe.
It's missing in ingredients list.
Too much lard for me. I've got Aitkins recipe and you need to add butter and lard as you would puff pastry, roll out spread mix, fold over, roll out, add more mix, fold over etc. won't turn out soo bread like
Tried these on the weekend. Very popular with the family, I will have to make these again....
