Ingredients

• 1 egg
• 1 cup milk
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 1 cup corn flakes cereal, coarsely crushed
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.75 teaspoon salt
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.125 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1.5 pounds ground beef
• 0.5 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
• 1.125 tablespoons white sugar
• 0.375 cup shortening

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.

Step 2

Bake in the preheated oven until dark golden brown, 30 to 45 minutes. Serve hot.

Step 3

Beat egg in a bowl until smooth. Add ground beef, cayenne pepper, crushed cereal, onion, salt, black pepper, and parsley. Mix until evenly combined; set aside. Stir together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a separate bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until no lumps of shortening remain and the mixture takes on a sandy appearance. Stir in milk until a dough forms.

Step 4

Roll the dough out to a 10x15-inch rectangle on a well-floured surface. Spread the meat mixture evenly over the entire surface of the dough. Roll the dough into a cylinder from one of the wide ends to form a 15-inch long log. Cut the log into 3/4-inch slices and place on the prepared baking sheets.
