Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Cold unsalted butter
• 1.25 cups Whole milk
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 3 tablespoons Melted butter
• 1 pinch Optional topping: sea salt flakes

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, mix the whole milk and 2 tablespoons of honey until well combined.

Step 5

Pour the milk and honey mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently for about 1 minute, just until it comes together.

Step 7

Divide the dough into 8 equally sized pieces and shape them into rounds or slightly flat discs.

Step 8

Place the rounds onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and the rolls sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 10

While the Shanachie rolls are baking, combine the melted butter and remaining 1 tablespoon of honey in a small bowl.

Step 11

As soon as the rolls come out of the oven, brush the tops generously with the honey butter mixture. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes on top for added flavor.

Step 12

Serve warm with extra butter or alongside soups and stews. Enjoy!
