This recipe states no serving size, so the quantities are left exactly as written.

Ingredients

4 cups (950 ml) whole wheat flour
½ cup (120 ml) white granulated sugar
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1½ cups (360 ml) buttermilk
4 tbsp butter, cut into pea-sized cubes

Method

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C)
Combine dry ingredients. Rub in butter until crumbly.
Mix in buttermilk to make a soft, workable dough. Knead dough briefly.
Make dough into a disc about 3 inches thick. Cut an X shape in dough with a knife (1 cm or so deep). Transfer to an oiled or parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 50–70 minutes (depending on your oven) until a skewer stuck in comes out with no "gooeyness" on it
Let cool 5–10 minutes after taking from the oven, then break apart with your hands into serving-sized chunks.
