- Butteries, because you haven't had exceeded your daily saturated fat intake yet and it's already noon. Set aside some time to make these, but they are worth it. Some people call them Rowies, but if you're confused just call them Scottish Croissants. [Subtitles added in English.]
Recipe:
500g/1lb 2oz strong plain flour, plus extra for dusting
1 x 7g sachet easy-blend dried yeast
1 tbsp soft light brown sugar
1 tbsp salt
350ml/12¼fl oz warm water
vegetable oil, for greasing
275g/9¾oz butter
100g/3½oz lard
Mix the dry stuff together in a bowl. Make a well in the centre, with an re.
Gradually add the water, mix constantly. You may not need to add all of it, just until it looks like a shaggy mess.
Ruin your worktop with flour and then ruin your forearms by kneading it for 8-10 mins. Until it looks nice.
Pop it into a greased bowl covered with a greased piece of plastic wrap. You need every opportunity possible to add fat to this recipe. Let it proof for an hour.
Then, cream together the butter and lard until combined and take a nap.
Get the dough out the bowl, lightly knead for 1-2 mins.
Roll it out until 40cm x 20cm or 16in x 8in if you're stubborn like that. Ideally 1cm/half inch thick. Spread out 1/4 or 1/3 (depending on how many times you can be bothered folding and rolling again) of the butter/lard mixture on the bottom third of the dough.
Fold the non-buttered end halfway down and tuck the buttered end on top of both. (see video!)
Repeat as many times as your attention span lasts.
Divide into as many pieces of whatever size you want.
Heat oven to 200C or 400F if your oven is weird or Gas Mark 6 if your oven mocks you with its very presence. Seriously why didn't you just get a regular oven?
Let the buns have a final proof for 45 mins.
Bake for 15-18 mins.
Try not to eat them all in one sitting.

Please don't call them Scottish croissants. 😡
Butteries are my favourite! Total nostalgia
Yeah, sorry I ate all of them myself. 😇
Loved it ! I lived in Aberdeen and nearly increased my size twofold by eating these for breakfast !
Canna beat an Aberdeen Rowie. I'm from Aberdeen but have lived in Vienna for 5½ years. Definitely miss these
Some people also forget mention the source of the recipe. It was the Hairy Bikers recipe posted on BBC Good Food.
More Scottish food of the gods along with Forfar Bridies, Arbroath Smokies and a few other items.
Not bad for a first attempt. Only comment I would make is that I don’t think it’s a good idea to roll them individually in your hand after you’ve layered the butter/lard. This breaks down the layering.
I’ve been adding celery salt on the butter part. Very tasty
Another great video!
Yes! So good!
Cut it open put cheese in the middle and whack it in the microve for a minute and they're lovely
Also the legally blonde tune 😂
A gorgeous,tall man who can cook?!! Marry me, Please😍
You need a Kitchen aid mixer!
I can see your tail wagging at 6:12 - these must be good!
lmao
"Scottish Croissants" lol, if you asked for that in a Bakery in Aberdeen you'd be dragged into the street and stoned to death.
Only joking bud. But yeah, i think they'd definitely give you a funny look, lol.
Rowies?? 🤣
People call these attempts Scottish croissants because they have failed miserably at making Aberdeen rowies. And I am sorry, but what you produced is not a rowie, buttery or roll. Your technique was all wrong.
Grump
Link to your perfect recipe video?
Yeah first time making them so I wasn't expecting perfection either. Gave it a go though! 😘
@@nickneepg5259 I've been making Aberdeen rowies since I was a wee bairn. My mother would make fresh butteries every Monday and Thursday at her café. I grew up making them with her almost every week and I still make them to this day myself.
@@lindsaymcdonald6875 and yet you still cannot link the perfect recipe or produce your own video.
BTW I have been visiting the the moon without a space suit for decades with my mum, beven before Neil Armstrong I would show you how far advanced and better than I am that the entire Nasa and Russian space program was, but I don't need to I can just say I am.
