Healthy Indian Fry Bread
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup fat-free milk
1 TSP baking powder
1 TBSP Splenda sugar substitute
Pure canola oil or Sunflower Oil/ Avocado Oil
Mix flours, baking powder, sugar substitute and milk together in a mixing bowl until dough is formed.
Turn dough out onto waxed paper sprinkled with self-rising flour. Knead dough and add self-rising flour as needed to make a nice dough. Allow to sit for at least 1 hour, or longer if desired.
Pour canola oil into a frying pan so it's about 1 inch deep. Heat canola oil. Sprinkle a little flour on the oil to test whether it's hot enough; it should sizzle when the oil is ready for frying.
Divide dough into portions, shape as desired and fry until golden brown on both sides. Immediately remove from oil and drain well on paper towels.
