Bannocks

1 pound of fine oatmeal 1/2 ounce of baking powder 1 ounce of butter 1 teaspoon salt Mix together the oatmeal and baking powder, rub in the butter, and make into a stiff dough with water. Roll out as thin as possible; cut into rounds with a tumbler. Butter a frying-pan, and cook a few at a time; when done on one side, turn carefully. Serve with butter or syrup. If more convenient they may be cooked on a well heated soapstone griddle and turned with a cake lifter.
