Baking traditional South African Buttermilk rusks

Buttermilk Rusks:
1kg Self-raising Flour
Pinch of Salt
250ml Sugar
250g Butter
500ml Buttermilk
1 Egg
25ml Oil
Preheat oven to 180*C. Grease a pan.
Mix dry ingredients together and rub butter in well.
Add the egg and oil, then add the buttermilk.
Mix, and start kneading the dough.
Press the dough evenly in the pan, and cut into desired size (1 X 3 inch pieces works well).
Bake for 45 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately break into the sections.
Place onto a drying rack, well spaced apart, and leave to dry out in the oven for 3 to 4 hours at 120*C.
REMEMBER to leave the oven door open, just a little bit for the duration of the drying time.
Leave to cool, then pack in a air-tight container.

    It’s winter and there’s no South African 🇿🇦 who wants to drink tea, coffee or hot chocolate without rusk biscuits. They are amazing ❤.

    Margarine is perfectly fine. Sometimes when I don’t have butter in the fridge, I use margarine, and it turns out just as good🌻

    I put vanilla essence in most of my baking, but never tried in my rusks. Although the buttermilk gives it a wonderful taste, I think adding a teaspoon or two of vanilla might make it even better. I am definitely going to try it with my next batch. 🌻
