Indian Fry Bread

Ingredients:

2 cups flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
2 level tablespoons solid crisco shortening

Preparation:

Using your hands, work Crisco into the dried ingredients until very well mixed.

Slowly add enough warm water to make a dough. Knead for about 5 minutes. Let it rest 10 minutes or so. Divide the dough into balls and flatten them out by hand or using rolling pin. Fry 'em up.

There's always honey or powdered sugar if you want a sweet something on top.
For a savory choice top with refried beans and enchilada sauce and melt cheese on top. Top with chili rojo or verde and queso.
