Fried Honey Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Combine flour, dry milk powder, baking powder and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly. Add water gradually, mixing to form a firm ball. Divide dough; shape into 12 balls. Let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Roll each ball into a 6-in. circle. With a sharp knife, cut a 1/2-in.-diameter hole in center of each. , In a large cast-iron skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Fry dough circles, one at a time, until puffed and golden, about 1 minute on each side. Drain on paper towels; if desired, serve warm with butter, honey and fresh lemon juice.

Steps:

• Whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Add milk and water, stirring with a fork until a sticky dough forms. Transfer to a floured work surface and knead a few times with floured hands just until smooth (do not overwork or bread will be tough). Return to bowl and cover with a kitchen towel; let stand 30 minutes.
• Heat 1 inch of oil to 365 degrees over medium-high in a heavy pot or deep-sided skillet. Pinch an egg-sized piece of dough with your fingers and flatten to an approximate 6-inch round (keep remaining dough covered and dust hands with flour if dough sticks). Cut a small slit in center of round with the tip of a knife (this will ensure the bread cooks evenly). Carefully lower into oil and fry, turning once, until puffed in places and golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and repeat with remaining dough (return oil to 365 degrees between batches). Serve warm or at room temperature with butter, honey, jam, and confectioner's sugar.

Steps:

• Combine flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir in 1 1/2 cups lukewarm water. Knead until soft but not sticky. Shape dough into balls about 3 inches in diameter. Flatten into patties 1/2 inch thick, and make a small hole in the center of each patty.
• Fry one at a time in 1 inch of hot shortening, turning to brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Warm the milk, honey, lemon rind and cinamon in a saucepan until almost boiling. Remove from the heat and leave to cool for 20 minutes.
• Cut the bread slices in half diagonally to form triangles and dip each piece into the infused milk. Transfer the slices to a wire rack set over a tray and leave them to dry out for 2 hours.
• Beat the eggs and heat a shallow layer of oil in a frying pan. Dip the bread triangles into the beaten eggs and fry for 10 minutes on each side, until golden. Serve with soured cream, a drizzle of honey and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Oil should be at least one-inch deep.
• Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Add water a little at a time until dough comes together into a ball and doesn't stick to your hands, about 5 minutes.
• Tear off plum-sized pieces of dough and flatten into 1/2-inch disks.
• Fry pieces of dough in the hot oil until brown on both sides, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels or napkins before serving.
