Airy, chewy bread roll popular in Scotland


The morning roll is an airy, chewy bread roll popular in Scotland.

The well-fired roll is given a stronger flavour in its bulk fermentation and baked at a higher temperature, and has a dark crust.

In Fife, a cabin biscuit or cabin roll (/ˈkeɪ.bɪn/ or /ˈkæ.bɪn/) is a local variant. Originating in Buckhaven, extra sugar was added to extend the life of the roll, for use by crews on fishing boats. They bear distinctive prick marks on top. It is a bread roll and not similar to a biscuit in the conventional British or American sense.

Scottish morning rolls are sold in bakeries, petrol stations and newsagents.
