- 1 1/3 cups oat meal
- 1 1/3 cups rye meal
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon clove

- 2 1/2 - 3 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup raisins

- Divide dough and roll into circles about 8" in diameter and almost 1" thick (or smaller if needed for better handling). Score a Cross in each one.
- While heating a lightly greased skillet, mix the eggs, cream, and melted butter.
- Spread onto one of the bannocks and place the bannock, egg-side down, in the skillet and cook til the egg-side is browned.
- Put the egg mixture on the top side, flip the bannock and cook 'til the second side is golden.
- Repeat this application of the egg wash and flipping and cooking until each side has been cooked three times.
- Do the same with the second bannock.
- Serve warm with butter and honey.
