Touton /ˈtaʊtən/ (or toutin)^[3] is a traditional dish from Newfoundland, commonly made with risen dough. Although pancakes are rarely made from homemade bread dough in Newfoundland, the memory of regional terms still exists in younger generations, such as the British English term tiffin, meaning "small lunch".^[4] The dish has a long list of regionally-distinct names, and can refer to two (or more) different types of baked or fried dough: the dough cake variant, usually fried; and a baked bun variant, made with pork fat.^[3] Toutons are usually served at breakfast or brunch and are on the breakfast menus of many local restaurants.
