For the Frybread

 

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

¼ cup powdered milk

1 cup of warm water

Oil for frying

 

  1. In a large bowl mix all dry ingredients. Slowly add water a little at a time, mixing with hands until it forms a ball that pulls away from sides of the bowl. Add more water or flour as needed, dough should be slightly sticky. Cover with towel and let dough rest for a half hour.

 

  1. In a deep pan, pour oil about 2-3 inches deep. Heat oil to 375 degrees F.

 

  1. As pan is heating, pinch off golf ball sized pieces of dough and set aside. On lightly floured board, begin rolling each ball with a rolling pin. Each ball should roll out to approximately 5-6-inch disks, placing a small hole in the center of the disk.

 

  1. Gently place dough into the hot oil, cooking one bread at a time. Using tongs turn the bread over when edges begin to turn golden in color. Continue to fry until both sides of the bread are golden brown.

 

  1. Place finished bread on towels to drain and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat until all disks are cooked.

 

For Graventsein Apple Topping

 

Makes about 4 servings

 

4 medium sized Gravenstein apples

3 tablespoons water

2 tablespoons butter

1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon

¼ teaspoon nutmeg

1/3 cup sugar

1 tablespoon cornstarch

 

  1. Start by washing all apples. Peel the skin and slice each apple in half, then remove the core and seeds. Chop apples into desired size.

 

  1. In a medium bowl combine chopped apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar and cornstarch. Mix well, until all pieces are coated.

 

  1. Over medium heat, place apples into shallow skillet. Add water and butter to pan, stirring continuously.

 

  1. Once apples begin to simmer turn down heat and caramelize. Once apples have reached desired thickness remove from heat.

 

The Finished Dish:   Placing frybread on dish, add Gravenstein apple to the top. Dust lightly with powdered sugar and a dollop of whipped cream as desired and enjoy!
