In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, coconut sugar, salt, and baking powder.
In a small cup, mix the active dry yeast with 60 milliliters of warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Add the yeast mixture and the remaining 120 milliliters of water to the dry ingredients. Stir until a rough dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough back into a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until doubled in size.
Once risen, gently deflate the dough and transfer it to a lightly floured surface.
Roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick and with a width of about 3 inches.
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into long strips, each about 1 inch wide.
Heat the oil in a deep frying pan or wok to 180Β°C (356Β°F).
Carefully add the dough strips one at a time into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan.
Fry the dough sticks for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove them from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve the vegan crispy fried dough sticks warm, with your favorite sauce or dip.
