Elephant Ears
1 loaf (16 oz.) frozen white bread dough, thawed
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
Cooking oil for shallow-fat frying
1. Cut bread dough into 12 pieces.
2. In a small bowl, stir together the sugar and cinnamon; set aside.
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each piece of dough to form a 1/8
to 1/4 inch thick oval.
4. In a heavy skillet, heat about 1/2 inch cooking oil over medium-high heat.
Cook bread ovals,
1 or 2 at a time, in hot oil for 45 to 60 seconds per side or until bread
ovals are brown.
5. Remove with tongs and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle sugar-cinnamon
mixture over the
fried bread. Keep warm in the oven while frying the remainder.
Makes 12 servings.
