Recipe Introduction
These are called scones, but they're NOT like the English scones!
List of Ingredients
1 teaspoon dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water
1cup warm milk
1/4 cup sugar
1-1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg, slightly beaten
2-1/2 cup all-purpose flour
additional flour for kneading
oil for fryingRecipe
Sprinkle yeast in 1/4 cup water, allow to soften. Combine the next 6 ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Stir yeast mixture and add to other ingredients. Beat until smooth, then add enough flour to make a soft dough. Knead until blisters form on the dough. Add enough flour in the kneading process so that the dough will not be sticky. Don't use more flour after kneading.
Place dough in a clean, lightly oiled bowl and cover. Allow to rise until double in bulk. Heat oil in a pan to 375 degrees. Knead dough to get the air out.
Roll out dough to 1/2" thickness and allow to relax 1 minute. Cut in desired shape. Drop in oil and fry until brown. Serve with honey butter or jam.
