Welsh Cakes ~ like a cross between a pancake and a scone, these sweet, buttery breakfast cakes are a delicious Welsh tradition!

These are sometimes known as bakestones or pics.

Welsh cakes are a sweet, quick bread, spiced and studded with currants. The thin rounds of dough were traditionally cooked on a heated bakestone over an open fire, which led to alternative names of bakestones, griddle cakes or pics (from the Welsh term picau ar y maen meaning ‘cakes on the stone’). Delicious served hot or cold, they are often dusted with sugar.

Wales has a tradition of living off the land and these traditional Welsh recipes reflect that. It’s hardy, stick-to-your-ribs food that is also delicious.

Unforgettably flaky, tender, almost melt-in-your-mouth texture that’s punctuated with sweet currants and laced with a wonderful hint of mace, these Welsh cakes are simply irresistible!
