1/4 cup of butter
3/8 cup of sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup of flour
1 tsp of baking powder
1/8 tsp of baking soda
1/4 tsp of cinnamon

Cream the butter and sugar. Add the egg and mix well. Combine the dry ingredients and half the nuts. Add the dry ingredients to the butter/sugar mixture alternating with the buttermilk (three additions of flour, 2 additions of buttermilk). Sprinkle with the remaining nuts. Pour into a greased 8'' round pan and bake at 350 F for about 20 minutes. Allow to cook in the pan.
