Incredible! This American Indian Fry Bread is the real thing and is very easy to make. It’s about as authentic as you can get from your own kitchen!
I have a friend that used to work at an American Indian restaurant and she says this recipe makes fry bread just like theirs!
If you would like to make a Taco Bell Chalupa this is the bread to use! No more overpriced Baja Beef Chalupas with very little meat!!

This American Indian Fry Bread is about as authentic as you can get.
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon oil
- 1 cup warm milk
- In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients except the oil to make the dough. Shape into round disks.
- Heat the oil in the skillet until hot over med-high heat, but not smoking. Fry shaped dough in hot oil till brown and crispy.
- Serve hot.
Traditionally you would eat this with stew. Or top with some honey. I personally like to spread a little butter on it.
Pile Chili on top and add a little cheese, lettuce, and tomato for a”Navajo Taco” Or use the round as your base for a Tostada, add taco meat, beans, cheese, lettuce, tomato, and Guacamole.
Enjoy!
