Native American Fry Bread

 We made this as a part of a homeschool lesson and loved it. Have made it again since.

Found this recipe here, but I think there are many variations.

Ingredients:

Enough vegetable oil for frying (about an inch deep)

1 cup flour (plus a little more for dusting)

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup milk

Instructions:

Heat an inch of oil in a skillet or saucepan to about 350F

Meanwhile, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Mix well to blend. Add milk and stir until the milk holds together. Knead 3 or 4 times on a floured surface.

May opt to divide the dough into four even balls and flatten them out before frying, or just spoon dough into oil without measuring or shaping.

Fry 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until lightly browned

Remove fried dough to a paper towel to drain. We've enjoyed these with cinnamon and sugar sprinkled on, but there are many more ways to eat fry bread! So yummy!
