Since Vaughn brought it up on his bread thread ...
we make frye bread for the kids when we have block parties.
Here is a basic recipe. Some folks will use 1/2 water and 1/2 milk.
Change Servings
4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 1/2 cups warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
4 cups shortening for frying
Check All Add to Shopping List
Directions
Combine flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir in 1 1/2 cups lukewarm water. Knead until soft but not sticky. let it sit for 30-45 minutes. Shape dough into balls about 3 inches in diameter. Flatten into patties 1/2 inch thick, (I like mine a little thinner), and make a small hole in the center of each patty.
Fry one at a time in 1 inch of hot shortening, turning to brown on both sides. (stick is optional) Drain on paper towels.
