Stottie?

Hi, folks!

I'm  looking for a recipe for a north-east England bread called 'stottie' or 'stottie cake'. It is a soft, flat bun that is chewy and seems very heavy for its size. I've tried a few recipes I've found on the Web, but they result in what is basically a big, flat bun not a true stottie cake:

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

Stottie cakes

    I searched around a little and found a recipe for what is called white potato Stottie Cake. Another one called it more of a method for baking cakes in the bottom of the oven with just a single rise. They supposedly come out like English Muffins. Another place referred to the them as "Yestie Cakes" , though no recipe. If you want I'll post the White Potato Stottie Cake recipe here. Hope this may help you.
