Fry Bread

Ok, so since I've been pregnant I've been craving Navajo Tacos.
I found this recipe for fry bread and decided to give it a try... how hard could it be, right?

Actually, not hard at all!
I made the last few a little thicker than the rest and added butter and powdered sugar.
DELISH!

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp active dry yeast
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 3/4 - 1 cup warm milk (110 degrees)
• 1 Tbsp butter or shortening, melted
• Vegetable oil, for frying (sometimes I use half olive oil)

In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, yeast and salt. Whisk melted butter into warm milk and pour milk mixture into dry ingredients. Stir until mixture comes together and forms a ball, dough should be slightly sticky and elastic so add an up to an additional 1/4 cup milk as needed. Cover dough with plastic wrap and allow to rest 10 minutes. Heat 1 inch of oil in a large cast iron skillet to 350 - 360 degrees over stove top. Divide rested dough into 12 equal pieces. Working with floured hands and one piece of dough at a time, roll dough out on a lightly floured surface into a 6 inch circle and gently drop into hot oil, and cook until golden brown 1-2 minutes per side (second side will cook faster). Remove from oil and drain onto a plate or baking sheet lined with paper towels. Serve warm with Navajo Taco topping or for dessert, spread with honey butter.
