In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add the warm water and stir until the mixture comes together into a dough. You may need to use your hands to knead it a bit.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it for about 2-3 minutes. You want a soft dough that’s not too sticky. If it feels too sticky, add a little more flour, but be careful not to overwork it.

Divide the dough into 6-8 equal portions. Roll each piece into a ball and then flatten it into a disk shape, about 1/2 inch thick. You can make them as small or as large as you like, but remember, the bigger the fry bread, the longer it may take to cook through.

In a large skillet or deep pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot enough that when you drop a small piece of dough into it, it sizzles immediately.

Carefully place one of the flattened dough disks into the hot oil. Fry each side for about 1-2 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to flip the fry bread and ensure both sides cook evenly.

Once golden and crispy, remove the fry bread from the oil and place it on a paper towel to drain any excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite toppings, whether sweet or savory!
