✅Ingredients
• 4 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 ½ tablespoons baking powder
• 1 ½ or more cups hot water
• 2-3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
✅Instructions
00:04 - The origins of Indian fry bread
04:00 - What toppings to use on Indian fry bread
1️⃣ 00:59 - In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Gradually add in the water, mixing with a spoon or your hands until combined. It will be sticky.
2️⃣ 02:08 - Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons of oil over the dough to keep it from drying out. Cover and let rest 2 hours. This is not a risen dough so the dough will not rise, but it does need to rest.
3️⃣ 02:57 - Pull off golf ball sized pieces of dough and stretch or roll out until very thin, without ripping it. The thinner the better.
4️⃣ 02:41 - Pour enough vegetable oil into a pot to cover it with 2 inches of oil. Heat to 350 degrees F.
5️⃣ 03:23 - Working one at a time, fry the dough in the hot oil until golden brown, flipping halfway through. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.

Fry Bread
___
1 pk yeast
1T salt
2T Sugar
1C warm water(95-105 degrees)
4 eggs
1t salt
1C oil(canola/ EVOO blend, veg, canola, coconut)
2C milk
1C Sugar
8-10C A.P. Flour to start(may be more)
1-24oz/48oz cooking oil
In a container, heat water, sugar and salt to temp (95-100F), then add yeast. Lightly mix then set aside for 5 min, to allow yeast time to activate and bloom. It is ready when yeast begins agitating and burping small bubbles.
In another container mix milk, sugar, salt and oil, then heat to 95-100F (warm touch to the wrist). It’s important that it is not too hot so that it does not curdle the eggs and/or kill the yeast. Once this mixture is warm, whisk in the eggs for up to 5 mins, mix well. It is OK if it looks a little broken as soon as you stop whisking. You are just trying to be sure it is not really grainy.
Now combine the bloomed water/yeast mix and the 2nd liquid into one med/large container. Then begin adding flour, 1 cup at a time. Mix well before adding the next cup. Once 6-8 cups of flour is mixed in (it's good and sticky), dust a surface with flour and begin kneading the dough by hand. (If using a mixer, low speed only and check after adding 1 C of flour to feel the dough and ensure it is not getting overworked). Pull the dough from underneath, up, and into the center, rotating slightly with each pull. Add flour until it forms into a soft ball that indents slightly when poked but then plumps back up (similar to poking the thick of your thumb muscle). Keep adding flour and kneading until it will sit up and hold some shape on its own a little while still feeling moist. Transfer into a lightly dusted bowl at least 2x its size, and cover w/ a (damp) towel. Let is rise from the yeast to twice its size. (1-2 hrs in a warm dry place.)
Once dough has doubled in size, begin warming the oil on a low heat in a large pot. Pinch dough that fits into the palm of your hand, and roll to form the balls with all of the dough. Set aside on a tray. Once the balls are formed, turn heat on oil up to medium.
Use light pressure and rotate as you go, to roll several balls into flat circles the size of your hand spread out. Roll them thin enough to slightly see light through the dough, then poke a small hole in the middle with a finger tip. Once 3-5 flats are rolled out, drop a little tester chunk of dough to check the oil temp. Oil is good if th dough sinks briefly and then floats up and has regular bubbles coming off. If the down sinks w/o rising, the oil is too cold, immediately floating with vigorous bubbling means it may be too hot. You don’t want the oil too hot because you will burn the bread as well as give off the burnt oil taste. Have your tongs ready, and set a flat into the oil by setting an edge in close to you and drape it into the oil away from you to avoid oil splashing back. Let the bread cook on one side until you see some coloration, then flip it over, (not towards you but away from you), and repeat this until it is golden brown on each side, and cooked through. Transfer to another lined tray and cover with a towel to keep the bread warm. Continue rolling and frying until done.
Substitutions:
Milk- Coconut milk, almond milk, powdered milk
Sugar- the yeast needs sugar to start, then alternatives and/or honey (note honey will need more flour,)
Flour- Bread(higher gluten), cake, X0 flour(Gluten free), 00 flour(fine wheat high gluten) and blends

Ever run into one of those mornings when you look in the fridge and discover that you have nothing to make into breakfast? I’m gonna show you how to make a quick version of a traditional bannock using a few basic ingredients from the pantry. Fresh from the pan, these are delicious with almost anything - jam, butter, syrup, cream or cinnamon spread. Breakfast solved!
You will need:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1 - 1 ½ cups water
½ cup cooking oil
We’ll start by mixing the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Start with the all-purpose flour, then add in 1 teaspoon each of baking powder, sugar and salt. Whisk together to combine.
To that, whisk in 1 cup of water to make a pasty batter. Add up to a ½ cup more if it’s not enough. You want your batter to be like paste and hang off a spoon. At this point, you can add raisins, dried cranberries or saskatoon berries for some variation.
Heat up ½ cup of cooking oil in a cast iron skillet on medium heat til the oil starts to shimmer. You can drop in a little piece of batter to test it. When the oil is ready, drop in the batter a tablespoon at a time and fry until golden brown. Flip over and continue frying until done. Carefully take out of the pan and drain on paper towels.
Fresh bannock goes well with just about anything, especially butter and your favourite jam. You can also dress this up like a scone with whip cream and fresh berries. It’s up to you!
Bannock is a traditional First Nations bread that was also enjoyed by the Metis. Because it was so easy to prepare, trappers and hunters often brought it out into the bush. It’s still made today and is gaining popularity with all Canadians.
