Measure 2 cups of all-purpose flour and add it to a mixing bowl.

Add 2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of salt to the flour and mix.

Add 2 tablespoons of melted butter (not hot) to the dry ingredients and mix.

Warm 3/4 cup of whole milk in the microwave for 20-30 seconds until slightly warm and add it to the mixture.

Mix until a sticky dough forms, adding more milk if necessary to achieve a soft dough.

Knead the dough lightly, adding flour to your hands to prevent sticking.

Cover the dough and let it rest for 20 minutes.

After resting, cut the dough into 12 equal pieces.

Roll each piece into a ball and then flatten it out, ensuring it fits within a marked circle.

Heat oil in a Fry Daddy or deep skillet until hot.

Gently drop the flattened dough into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.

Remove the fry bread from the oil and let it drain on a rack or paper towels.
