To cook scones. Preheat 2 -3 " of oil in an electric frying pan to 350 º. Roll dough on a floured surface about 1/4 " thick. Using a pizza cutter, cut scones into squares or strips.

Personal Notes:
This is the scone recipe Peterson's use for Navajo Tacos. It is easy to serve to a crowd. If not serving immediately, place cooked scones in a warm oven to keep warm.

This is a Brewster tradition for their canyon breakfast on Memorial Day.

These scones are also Moore's traditional 4th of July breakfast.

Hmmm what holiday is left for Tingeys?
