Native American Fry Bread

Sorry but this recipe is unnecessary. I’m Native American and we just mix all purpose flour and water until you get a doughy consistency you make it about half and inch thick and as large as you’d like. Then poke a hold in the center with your finger and make it about 1 cm around. Then just deep fry until golden brown. There is no need for such a long, drawn out recipe. No offense!

These were very good. I served then topped with pinto beans, cheese, lettuce and diced tomato. They would also be good made a little smaller and sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar.

I was a little nervous to make this, since I don't fry things in general, but I was asked to bring a native American dish to a book club. I used an electric skillet set at 375° and that worked very well. I poured in about a half inch of vegetable oil and set that to heat while the dough rose. Again, that worked out just fine. I got about 16 pieces of bread out of the 6 cups of flour. The bread is delicious, and I was thinking maybe to serve it with strawberry jam. Thank you for the recipe!

We did not use oil to cook due to dietary restrictions. Pan Fried with butter instead. Family loved them :)

I have made this recipe many times as written and it is always good. Why mess with success, BUT I wanted to try making it in my Ninja Foodi. They browned on with a coating of oil spray, but we're doughy in the center and boring, boring, boring to eat. I even tried dusting with cinnamon sugar before air crisping. Better but next time I go back to a skilled with 3/4" of oil.

Good

I will make this again.
