The untoasted texture reminds me of some of the pre-packaged pastries you can get in the bread aisle. I would like to try it with something spread on it. I heard it is wonderful topped with butter and jam.

I looked through a good many of my other cookbooks, and the recipe isn't in any other of the books. I read that it was a recipe rooted in Appalachia, so now I'm wondering how widespread the method is? I have more cookbooks in the basement and I want to look through them when I get a chance.
