Fried Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 teaspoons baking powder
2 cups flour
1 cup water
oil or lard (for frying)

Preparation

Mix flour and baking powder. Add water to make a soft dough. Pat dough out on a sheet of plastic wrap to about 1/2\" thick.
Heat up about 1/4\" of oil or lard to medium heat in a cast iron or non stick pan.
Cut dough into about 9 biscuits.
Fry on one side until brown. Flip and cook about 2-3 minutes more. Test for doneness by flaking the side of a biscuit with a fork. If it seems dry inside it is done.
Serve with butter and jam. Can also be napped with gravy and served with stewed hamburger and onions.
