Sweet Cream Buttered Welsh Cakes

This was originally langodog Welsh Cakes but it is almost impossible to get langodog butter since they went out of business!

Ingredients

• 3oz sweet cream salt free butter
• 8oz Self-raising flour
• 1 leek
• 1 teaspoonful of Welsh honey mustard
• 1 teaspoonful of poppy seeds
• 1 egg

Method:

1. Sieve flour and rub in butter until it forms fine breadcrumbs.
2. Slice up the leeks thinly and add to mixture.
3. Add the poppy seeds.
4. Mix the beaten egg with the mustard and add to the dry ingredients to create a soft dough mixture. (If there is enough time, put it in the fridge to rest)
5. Roll out and cut into small rounds.
6. Cook on a hotplate or griddle for 4 minutes each side.

 Perfect for breakfast with cockles, laverbread or bacon; a picnic or a Welsh tea; or to round off a meal served with Welsh cheeses and pickle.
