This fry bread was a disaster! It was too greasy, too bland, and it didn't rise properly. I'm never making this recipe again.

The fry bread was good, but it was a little too bland for me. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

This fry bread was a little too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I've never made fry bread before, but this recipe made it so easy. The bread was delicious and I can't wait to make it again.

This fry bread was so easy to make and turned out perfect! I used buttermilk instead of water and it gave the bread a slightly tangy flavor that I really liked. I also added some chopped green chiles to the dough for a little spice.

I'm Navajo and this recipe is spot on! I've been making fry bread for years and this is the best recipe I've ever used. The bread is light and fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. I love to serve it with honey and powdered sugar.

This fry bread was a hit at my last potluck! I loved the simplicity of the recipe and the delicious flavor. I used white flour instead of all-purpose flour and it turned out great. I also added a pinch of garlic powder and onion powder to the dough f
