From a hand written cookbook from 1930s, Neligh Ne. Cinnamon, honey, and orange zest in this; it tastes like a biscuit with honey and cinnamon. Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
4 tablespoons shortening |
2/3 cup milk |
1 tablespoon butter, melted |
2 tablespoons honey |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 egg yolk |
2 tablespoons orange zest |
Directions:
1. Sift flour, baking powder and salt.
2. Cut in shortening.
3. Add milk to make soft dough; recipe says you may have to add 3/4 cup milk but start with lesser amount (I did have to add more milk).
4. Turn out on a floured board; knead 1/2 minute.
5. Divide dough in half.
6. Roll each portion into circular shape about 1/4 inch thick.
7. Brush with melted butter and honey that you have melted together.
8. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
9. Cut into pie shaped pieces.
10. Roll up starting at large end (roll tight or they will come unrolled).
11. Brush with egg yolk mixed with water.
12. Sprinkle top with orange zest.
13. Bake 10 to 12 minutes in hot oven 450 degrees Fahrenheit. (Mine took a little longer).
14. Be careful when handling them out of oven; the honey is wicked hot for a few minutes.
