Dutch Oven Indian Fry Bread |
- 2 c. all-purpose flour
- 1/2 c. nonfat dry milk
- 1 Tbs. baking powder
- 3/4 tsp. salt
- 3/4 c. lukewarm water
- Cinnamon
- Sugar
- Melt shortening in the Dutch oven for a depth of about 2 inches.
- Stir the flour, dry milk, baking powder, salt and water together.
- Knead on floured board.
- Cover and let stand for 15 minutes.
- Cut dough into 8 sections, then flatten or roll out to 1/2 inches thick.
- Drop pieces of dough into the hot oil to fry about 2 minutes or until done.
- Roll in cinnamon and sugar.
These are essentially scones. But if you want to serve as traditional fry bread, omit the cinnamon sugar, and make the sections a little larger and you could serve with taco toppings.
I hope you enjoy these!
