Ingredients

Method

1.Preheat oven to 210°C or 190°C fan-forced. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Combine flour, bicarbonate of soda, cream of tartar and salt in a large bowl. Stir in buttermilk until mixture forms a soft dough.
2.Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 1-2 minutes. Using lightly floured hands, divide dough into 6 balls. Place on prepared tray 2cm apart and dust with flour. Use a sharp knife to score a square in top each roll.
3.Bake for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown and rolls sound hollow when tapped. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Serve with butter, if you like.

To freeze, wrap rolls individually in plastic wrap or freezer bags, and freeze for up to 1 month. To reheat, remove plastic wrap, wrap in foil and place in an oven preheated to 20°C or 18°C fan for 10-12 mins, until warmed through. makes 6
