Time 40m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups flour
3 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1 egg
1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup shortening

Steps:

  • Mix all the dry ingredients together.
  • Cut the margarine or shortening into the dry ingredients until the mixture is crumbly.
  • Add the milk and egg and stir until well combined.
  • Shape pieces of dough into 5-6 inch circles.
  • They should be about 1/2 an inch thick.
  • You then fry them in oil that comes atleast halfway up the side of the johnny bread.
  • It should be a low to medium flame; too high and the outside will burn and the inside will still be doughy.
  • They're done when they're golden brown on both sides.
  • Depending on their thickness, it could take anywhere from 3-5 minutes per side.
  • Drain on paper towels when done.
  • Enjoy!
