Not very sweet.  Thought it might taste better with all that butter.  Smelled wonderful when cooking and it did taste really good. Can't wait to try it when it has been in the fridge.  Did not top with softened butter - I mean really how much butter do we need :-)  Update: love it cold especially with blueberry (homemade) syrup on top.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Combine flour, baking powder, and a salt. Stir and set aside.
