Ingredients
-
1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast
-
¼ cup warm water
-
6 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 cup white sugar
-
3 eggs
-
¼ cup melted butter, cooled
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
1 ¼ cups milk
Directions
-
In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water with a pinch of the sugar. Set aside to ferment, about 10 minutes.
-
Transfer the yeast mixture to a large bowl, and stir in the sugar, eggs, salt, flour, and milk until the dough comes together. Stir in the melted butter, then turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and knead for about 10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Cover dough with a cloth and set aside to rise until doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes.
-
Divide dough into about 15 to 20 pieces, and shape them into flat round cakes about 1/2 inch thick. Place a cloth on the table and dust it with flour. Arrange the cakes on the cloth, allowing space for rising. Allow them to set for 1 1/2 hours.
-
Place the cakes in a heavy ungreased skillet, and cook over low heat. Fry the cakes on each side until golden.
