This Native American bread is a specialty in the Southwest, especially in the Navajo and Hopi Nations.
Fry bread is a thin round of dough puffed like a giant doughnut without a hole in the middle.
It can be a complement to savory foods or it can serve as a sweet when drizzled with honey and powdered sugar. Mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl, then stir in the water and oil. Knead the dough lightly until it is smooth and elastic. Shape the dough into a ball, place it in a sealable plastic bag and refrigerate for about an hour. Form the chilled dough into 12 small balls and flatten them with your hands, then roll into circles about 4-5 inches in diameter.
