Utah scone · Salt Lake City
The Utah scone is a yeasted dough deep-fried into a puffy, hollow square or oval, served hot with honey butter, jam or savory chili. Unlike British scones.
The Utah scone evolved from the pioneer-era fry bread tradition crossed with European yeasted dough traditions brought by 19th-century Mormon immigrants. By the 1950s, the puffy yeasted Utah scone was a staple of Wasatch-front cafes, ski-resort lodges, and pioneer-day celebrations. Honey butter, made from whipped butter and Utah honey, is the canonical condiment.
