Ingredients
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 1/2 cups water
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Heat the milk and water together until hot. Gradually pour the hot liquid into the dry ingredients and mix with your fingers until a soft dough forms that pulls away from the bowl.
- Cover the dough with a clean cloth and let it rest for about 20 minutes. Then, divide the dough into about 18 equal pieces.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece into a ball and gently flatten it into a 1/2-inch thick disk. Make a small hole in the center of each disk to help keep it flat while frying.
- Heat enough oil in a deep skillet or pan to reach about 1 inch in depth and bring it to 375°F. Fry the dough disks in batches, cooking 1-3 minutes per side until they turn golden brown and develop bubbles on the surface. Remove the fry bread with tongs and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
