I took this bread to a dinner party and the guests enjoyed it a lot. It has the taste and consistency of a sweet scone vs. bread. I believe the chef forgot to include a liquid so I added one cup of milk; I also baked it at 350f for 40 minutes. It didn't want to come out the skillet very easily so I'd suggest lightly coating the pan with butter and flour before adding the dough. I would make it again to serve with a brunch.
