This is best served hot. When it cools completely, it becomes tough. It is especially good with Indian foods such as fried salt pork, wild onions & eggs.
Ingredients
- 2 c. flour
- Pinch of salt & soda
- 6 rounded ts. baking powder
- Buttermilk
Directions
Mix in enough buttermilk to make a soft dough. Pinch off a wad of dough about the size of a small orange. Pat out into a circle about 1/2" thick. Punch center twice with a sharp knife. Repeat using remainder of dough. Fry in hot shortening just as you would fry doughnuts. Brown bread on one side, turn and brown the other side.
