Does anyone know any Native American recipes for bread that is sweet?

I had this bread at a Pow Wow at a local University for Native American Heritage Month.





Lakota Fry Bread

* 1 package yeast


* 10 lbs flour wheat or white


* 1 cup dry milk


* 1 cup vegetable oil





Combine dry milk, vegetable oil and sugar in sauce pan over low heat. Add the yeast till dissolved. Do not overheat, warm only. Combine this with the flour, if sticky, add water in small amounts till dough sticks together. With oiled lightly hands, knead dough for 10-15 minutes, let stand, usually 2 hours in warm area, covered. When dough rises, punch down again, and knead and let rise one more time. Heat 1 can crisco or lard in sturdy pan or pot, roll dough out in 1/2 in circles if using for indian tacos or squares if making for soup.





Fry in oil till golden brown. Dry off on paper towels to get rid of excess grease.Does anyone know any Native American recipes for bread that is sweet?
You will have a difficult time finding a 'sweet' bread recipe form native americans, most things the made were with corn and savory.


The closes you will come is probably sweet corn fritters.


I have listed a recipe the Cherokees made with sweet potatoes, I suppose you could add sugar to the recipe or top the bread with honey.





I have a friend who is Navajo and she taught me to make Navajo Fry bread, sort tortilla like but I like it better.

I practically grew up on the rez (Just a white girl that lived right next to it) and never saw any fry bread recipes like the one from the first answer.
There is 101 ways to make fry bread.





The way we make fry bread is for the dough to be very moist. After mixing.... with floured hands pull off a piece shape it into the size you want.





Have a plate with a thin layer of flour to dip the dough in..... if the dough begins to stick to your hands.





The dough should puff up quite a bit when it begins to cook.

You can also use milk instead of water or 1 beaten egg and milk. Each gives a slightly different flavor.
