1. In a food processor or mixer combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
2. Slowly add the corn oil and water and continue mixing until it forms a rough dough.
3. Place the dough on a floured surface and gently knead until the dough is elastic and comes together. Do not overwork the dough.
4. Shape the dough into a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
5. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Flatten each piece and using a floured rolling pin roll into 7 inch thin discs. Using your finger poke a hole in the center of the dough. Repeat.
6. In a large fry pan or deep fryer heat the corn oil to 360 degrees.
7. One at a time carefully slip a piece of the flattened dough rounds into the hot oil and fry for 2 minutes. Turn the fry bread over once with a long handled spoon.
8. Remove the fry bread from the oil and drain on paper towels. Repeat.
