Scones are amazing! Especially when they are hot with melted butter and honey. Oh yum!
I have heard of scones being called many different things, Sopaipillas, Fried Bread, and Navajo Tacos when covered with taco meat, lettuce, and tomatoes. But whatever you call them they taste amazing!
Ingredients to Make Fry Bread
- 1 ⅜ cup room temp water
- 2 Tablespoons softened butter or margarine
- 1 ¾ teaspoons salt
- 4 cups bread flour
- 2 tablespoons dry milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 ¼ teaspoon active dry yeast
- Oil for frying
How to Make the Dough in a Bread Maker Machine
Scones start with homemade bread. I love homemade bread but don't like making it. All of the waiting for it to rise, then kneading and waiting... I have better things to do.
That is why I love my Oster Breadmaker, it does all of the
For the dough, I used a traditional white bread recipe.
Press start and let the bread maker work its magic. Mine takes 90 minutes and then I am left with this glorious bucket of bread dough.
How to Deep Fry Bread
On the stove, heat about ½ - ⅓ inch of oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. This is how we are going to fry the bread.
Take a handful of bread dough
and roll it out on a floured surface. You don't want the dough too thin, it should have some thickness.
Cut into manageable pieces. Of course the bigger the piece the bigger the scone.
When the oil is nice and hot begin laying the dough in the pan. I always do the water popping test. If the oil makes a popping noise when I sprinkle some water in the pan then it is the right temperature.
You can cook several at a time depending on the size of your skillet.
Cook about 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
When you pull them out of the oil lay them on paper towels to collect some of the extra oil.
You want to let them cool for just a minute so you can handle them, but they really are better when you can eat them nice and warm.
Time to Eat!
I like to eat them with lots of butter and honey! But this recipe works great for Navajo Tacos too! Just pile on the taco meat and your favorite toppings and you are good to go!

Our Baking Essential List
- We use Glass Baking Dishes for baking casseroles. I especially like the dishes with lids because leftovers can be transferred straight to the fridge.
- Silicone Kitchenware is my favorite because they don't scratch my cookware and is easy to clean!
- A Glass Cutting Board is a must to prepare all of those ingredients. We even keep ours on our counter at all times.
- This Knife Set will also become your favorite! The knives cut beautifully, and the hollow design prevents food from sticking to the blade.

My mom would make these when I was little. We called them Fried Dough Cakes. We put butter on them and had them with eggs over easy (as a child, I called them Dippin' Eggs).
