This is an incredibly light bread and goes with everything. I like mine with orange butter and honey poured over. It's good for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner or even a snack. Everybody I have ever made this for raves over it. Hope you enjoy as... More

This looks very similar to Indian Fry Bread found all over Arizona and the southwest. I absolutely love fry bread so I look forward to trying this.


This is Indian bread that has gone modern with butter. My son is a chef at a fine dining restaurant in a Choctaw Casino here and a Choctaw friend came to his house and made fry bread. They used shortening, but wanted lard, which I didn't have. Delicious. I ran mine through a decalorizer to cut the calories to a safe level.


Have to make some of this for the week end.. It is what we call Indian bread, but without the lard.. Wonderful. Great post!


This is very much like the fried bread we have in New Zealand.I just love it!


LOve it!


Loved this fried bread. I've not had very good luck
with other recipes,but this one came out perfect
first time. I had to substitute, water for milk cause I did not have any, but it still came out light and crispy and very tasty. I may just keep using the water cause I liked it so much. This is a keeper recipe.


I can honestly say I do not particularly make any recipes where I don't know the website or where there isn't a picture. I was craving fried bread and made this today (for me and my boyfriend), and I absolutely loved it. This recipe is way better than the fried breads you get at fair!! I give this recipe 2 thumbs way up!!!
