Navajo Fry Bread Recipe

(Adapted from MelindaLee.com)

Tortillas aren't the only traditional "container" for tacos. Navajo fry bread is a great taco alternative to hard taco shells.

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups of flour
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 8 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 cup or more of warm water
  • Vegetable oil
  • Additional flour

Lightly flour a cutting board or clean surface to work your dough.

Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Form a hole in the middle of the mixture and pour in 1 cup of water. Mix the ingredients together using a large spoon to make the dough. You may have to add more water to make the dough work. Don't use an electric mixer.
