Pour the milk and melted butter into the dry ingredients and mix well with a fork.

Transfer the dough to a clean work surface and knead for 2 to 3 minutes until stretchy. Form the dough into a ball and let it rest for 10 minutes.

Divide the soft dough into 8 pieces. Roll each piece of dough into a dough disk.

Heat a deep pan or skillet over medium heat with 1-inch of vegetable oil to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius). Carefully lower each dough disk into the hot oil. Cook in batches.

Transfer the fried bread dough to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess grease. Sprinkle each fried dough with powdered sugar, and enjoy!
