I have no idea, I think it's just like regular bread dough that she would just make into discs and fry. We did sprinkle sugar on it though. I think it's the frying and the sugar that make it taste special but the bread itself I think is just regular dough. I don't know though, I'm very good at paying attention.

Grandma just uses her regular yeast dough. You can also just deep fry refrigerator bisquits. Flatten them out some and plop them in the grease until brown, add the butter and honey and .......hmmmm good. better plan on a hike to wear it all back off though, it's real good stuff.

Fried yeast dough is super yummy. When it is deep fried, we call it scones. When it is just pan fried in a bit of oil, we call it grease cakes. You can also fry quick baking powder dough. If you google recipes for Navajo bread, you'll get lots of hits for fried baking powder dough. It's fabulous, with chili on top, or for dessert with jam.

I use yeast bread dough to make fried dough. I've also made refrigerator biscuit doughnuts you just make a hole in the center of the biscuit and then frost them with chocolate frosting from the can while the doughnuts are still hot.
