Scones Recipe (also known as Fry Bread)
You will need:
- 2 Tablespoons yeast
- 2 Cups warm water
- 4 Tablespoon Sugar
- 2 teaspoon Salt
- 2 Tablespoon oil
- 4 Cups Flour
- 1-4 cups of oil for frying
In a large mixing bowl dissolve yeast into warm water. Then add in sugar, salt and oil, mix then add flour one cup at a time. Form into dough then cover bowl with towel and set aside for 15 minutes to allow to raise. Heat oil in deep frying pan over med/high heat. You can roll the dough out like a tortilla or just pat it flat in your hands (getting it thin as you can) Fry on both sides for about 1 minute on each side (total cooking time 2-3 minutes). Recipe makes 15-20 scones depending on how big you make them.
Serve with your favorite topping…. honey, jam, butter, powdered sugar, or use as the base to a Navajo Taco.
Thanks to my friend Sheri for sharing this recipe with me
This recipe is fantastic! So easy. I usually use Rhodes frozen rolls and let the dough thaw several hours but this recipe is so easy and quick and taste better. I don’t actually roll it out as thin as possible. I leave it around a 1/4 inch thick. It makes a heartier scone. Delicious.
