TRADITIONAL SCOTTISH SHORTBREAD

With there being so many recipes on the internet that are not authentic Scottish shortbread recipes, it has been so nice to see how well these have been received. And my other varieties have been received well too. Here is some photos and feedback.

ALISON D

Facebook group member Alison and her family loved the shortbread recipe & she earned her ‘Scottish Stripes’ from using this recipe. Her family are apparently still raving about it. “The instructions were super easy to follow and they were easy to make”.

Maureen has to use Spelt flour and goats butter, but she successfully makes several of my recipes, using different ingredients. So Maureen confirms how well the recipe works with this particular change of flour and butter. Having made them several times, Maureen had this to say –
