Squaw bread #1

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
5 cups Flour
2 tablespoons Baking powder
1 teaspoon Salt
1 tablespoon Melted butter
2 cups Milk
Cooking oil for frying

Directions

Sift 4 cups flour with baking powder and salt. Combine milk and melted fat.

Place flour mix in a large bowl and add the liquid ingredients, a little at a time, beating them in at first with an egg beater. When the 4 cups have been worked to a soft dough, lightly flour a board with part of the remaining flour. Knead dough lightly, working in the flour. Divide the dough into 3 parts and shape each into a round about ⅛" thick of a diameter to fit the sikllet you plant to fry in. Pour oil into heavy skillet about ¼" deep. Heat oil and brown breads quickly, one at a time until golden on both sides.
