Awhhh I love that you know about Me&Stans. I sure miss those scones and honey butter but I think the recipe I have is pretty close! I wonder if he is still alive and living in Rexburg?

You’d be surprised Michael at how passionate people are about what they are called and what is actually a scone. My English followers and people from outside Utah and Idaho get really worked up when we call fried bread (with our without yeast) a scone. Either way it’s fried bread and my recipe uses yeast. A lot of people also get a little worked up that fry bread is Navajo fried bread. This is a no win no matter what I call them and the whole point is the story and the memories I have surrounding this fried yeast bread from Stan. Also, when creating a post or title, I take SEO into account so that my recipes and blog posts can be found when people are searching.
Did you actually read my post and recipe? Either way, it’s fried bread because it’s friend in peanut oil and we call them scones where my family is from in Idaho.

Thanks for the feedback. I made an adjustment in the notes.

Thanks so much! I just use whatever brand is avabalable. You can also just use real butter with the entire recipe if you want since margarine is so bad for you! I think blue bonnet is one I’ve used and a Kroger brand.

That made my day reading this! I have such wonderful memories of Stans scones and honey butter. I’m so sad he decided to close it when he retired but so glad I was able to get the recipe figured out after talking to him. He is a darling man!
