What is the recipe please? No recipe shown...

My granny said the secret of her rock buns was rice flour so I tried 150g plain/50g diy rice flour plus a raising agent. The rice flour gives a grittiness that I remember and like. Perhaps not to everyone's taste. I used 40g olive oil as that's all I had. I could've used less. Horrified at the idea…

Do the rock buns taste nice with chocolate chips?

Lovely rock cakes used currants and sultanas instead of choc chips
