Dutch Oven Hopi Indian Fry Bread

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup nonfat dry milk
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup lukewarm water
Cinnamon
Sugar

Ignite about 15 to 20 charcoal briquettes and arrange in a pile in your fire pan. Let burn until they are covered with ash (about 20 minutes).

Melt Crisco in the Dutch oven for a depth of about 2 inches.

Stir flour, dry milk, baking powder, salt and water together and knead on floured board. Cover and let stand for 15 minutes.

Cut dough into 8 sections, then flatten out to 2 inches thick. Drop sections of dough into the hot oil to fry about 2 minutes or until done. Roll in cinnamon and sugar.
