Navaho Fry Bread

Recipe Ingredients

2 cups	125g / 4.4oz	All-purpose flour
1 tablespoon	15ml	Baking powder
1 teaspoon	5ml	Salt
1 tablespoon	15ml	Vegetable oil - plus
6 cups	1422ml	Vegetable oil
3/4 cup	177ml	Warm water
1 cup	198g / 7oz	Powdered sugar - (optional) topping
1 cup	237ml	Honey - (optional) topping

Recipe Instructions

In the bowl of a food processor, mix the dry ingredients. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the oil and the water, and process until smooth. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead until the dough is just elastic and comes together, being careful not to over work. Shape the dough into a ball, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Flatten each piece and roll into a 7-inch circle, making as thin as possible. Poke a hole in the center with the handle of a wooden spoon or your finger.

In a large saute pan or deep fryer, heat the oil to 360 degrees. Slip the rounds 1 at a time into the hot oil and cook for 2 minutes, turning once with a long-handled spoon. Drain on paper towels and repeat with the remaining dough.

Sprinkle the fried bread with powdered sugar and drizzle with honey, as desired, and serve.

This recipe yields 12 fried breads, 6 to 12 servings.
