This is from The Art of American Indian Cooking by Y. Kimball & J. Anderson. It's quick and easy, and makes a good camp bread. I've made it both at home, and over a campfire. Cooking time is approximate as it will depend on your heat. This is especially true if cooking it over a campfire.
Ingredients:
5 cups flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon melted butter or 1 tablespoon margarine
2 cups milk
cooking oil, for frying bread
Directions:
1. Sift 4 cups flour with baking powder and salt.
2. Combine milk and melted butter.
3. Place flour/baking powder mixture in large bowl and gradually add liquid ingredients, beating well.
4. When the mixture has been worked into a soft dough, lightly flour a board with part of the remaining flour.
5. Turn out dough onto board and knead lightly, working in remaining flour.
6. Divide dough into 3 parts and shape each into a round pone about 1/8 inch thick and a diameter to fit skillet.
7. Pour enough oil in skillet to measure about 1/4 inch deep.
8. Heat oil and brown each loaf quickly, one at a time until golden on both sides.
