Bandysie

A bandysie is a type of sweet, usually a cookie or small cake, originating from and primarily found in Scotland. The term is relatively uncommon and may be considered archaic in modern usage. While recipes vary, bandysies are generally known for being a simple, often homemade treat, potentially involving oats or other locally sourced ingredients. There is not one universally agreed-upon recipe, contributing to the term's somewhat ambiguous definition. The word itself may be a diminutive form, suggesting something small and delightful. Further etymological research is required to definitively trace the origin of the term and its exact culinary components.
