How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut butter into the mixture with a pastry cutter. Then, add buttermilk until dough becomes soft. Now, mix in the currants.
  • Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, until smooth. Make the dough into a 7 inch round then place on a lightly oiled cookie sheet or cake pan. Next, cut 1/2 inch deep cross side to side and score with cross 1/2 inch deep on the top.
  • Bake for 40 minutes, and serve.
