JOHNNY CAKES (FRIED BREAD)
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
4 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 cup water
1/3 cup milk
2 tbsp butter
Large bowl: mix together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Blend in butter. Mix in water and milk. Be sure to mix well. Knead into one big ball and let stand for 15 minutes. Cut into pieces of dough and roll them into flat cakes.
Deep fryer: Cooking oil should cover Johnny Cakes; cook until medium to dark brown. Drain excess oil on paper towels.
I once took my sister-in-law's Johnny Cakes with Dutch cheese to school and a classmate stole them, he was suspended for it. I can't really blame him because they are very tasty.
