Scones – Krista Loiacono/Jan Sanford

  • 1 quart buttermilk
  • 2 TBS sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 pkg. yeast (2 TBS)
  • 6 TBS oil
  • 2 eggs, beaten

Combine all ingredients together. Then add:

  • 6-8 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 3 tsp baking powder

Mix well.

Dough will be soft. Let rise one hour. Punch down and refrigerate overnight. (dough will last for one to two weeks.)

Heat your pan with oil until hot. Shape scones into circles (may need to add flour if too sticky). Drop into hot oil and turn over when underside is brown. Place on paper towel to drain. Serve with butter, honey, or jam.
