My Air Fryer Navajo Tacos recipe is easy to make even with a homemade fry bread. Top with your favorite toppings for an easy weeknight recipe that will wow everyone.
Combine all the dry ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer.
Using the bread hook, mix in the water and oil. Knead on medium-slow speed for 5-10 minutes, until the dough forms a ball and no longer sticks to the side of the bowl.
Place the dough ball in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth and let the dough rest for 2 hours.
Cut the dough into 12 golf-ball sized pieces and shape into balls.
Using your hands, flatten the dough balls to form a small flat bread 1/4” thick.
Mist or brush the air fryer basket with a light coating of oil. Place flattened dough in the greased basket and spritz with oil.
Cook on 330 degrees F for 7 minutes, flip, spritz with oil and cook for 3 more minutes.
Top with taco meat, lettuce, cheese, onion and tomatoes.
Notes
For an easy weeknight dinner, prepare the fry breads & taco meat ahead of time. To serve, reheat the breads and meat and serve with desired toppings.
For a dessert option: serve the fried dough with honey, dusted with powdered sugar or a cinnamon & sugar mixture.
