List of Ingredients
4 c. flour
1 c. dried milk
8 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. salt
2 c. warm water
2 Tbsp. sugar
Recipe
You may use white flour or a combination of wheat and
white or with cornmeal. You may omit dry milk if you wish.
Mix
dry ingredients well. Add warm water gradually. Mix and
knead
until dough is soft, but not sticky. Shape into balls 2
inches
in diameter; flatten by hand into circles 1/4 inch thick.
Use
a little flour to keep dough from sticking to hands. (Navajo
tradition says you should poke a small hole in center of
each
circle to release the evil spirits before frying. ) Place in
hot oil (or you can use butter) in frying pan. Brown lightly
on both sides, eat plain or with butter, or jam or
combination
of sugar and cinnamon.
