In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, active dry yeast, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder. Whisk briefly to combine.

Sift the Grace Pumpkin Flavored Soup Mix into the dry ingredients. This helps prevent clumps and ensures even distribution of flavor.

Use a wooden spoon or your hands to thoroughly mix all the dry ingredients together until well combined.

Add the softened unsalted butter to the dry mixture. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Gradually add the warm water, about 1/4 cup at a time, mixing by hand until a soft, shaggy dough forms. You may not need all of the water.

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Lightly grease a clean large bowl with olive oil. Place the kneaded dough in the oiled bowl, turning it once to coat all sides. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise in a warm place for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.

Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release the air. Transfer it to a lightly floured surface and divide it into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a smooth ball, then flatten it with your hands into a disc. Use a rolling pin to further flatten each disc into thin, round shapes, about 4-5 inches in diameter.

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pot or large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350-375°F. Carefully place 1-2 flattened dough discs into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. As they fry, use a spoon to pour hot oil over the top of the bakes to help them puff up. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until both sides are golden brown and puffed.

Using a slotted spoon or tongs, remove the fried bakes from the oil and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Serve warm.
