This is an adopted recipe. The original introduction stated "Bannock is a Native Indian fry bread. Simple and quick to make. This recipe comes from a magazine article. The woman who taught the author of the article to make bannock said that "rich Indians add raisins to their bannock"."

SERVES 4 , 4 pieces (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 cups flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar (or less, if you prefer your bannock less sweet)
2 pinches salt
water, at room temperature

Directions

1
Mix flour, baking powder, sugar and salt together.
2
Mix with enough water so that the mixture becomes a dough.
3
Form into 4-6 large, thick patties.
4
Fry on lightly oiled frying pan, turning when the bottom is golden.
5
(You may also bake in the oven.) Good served warm.
6
If desired, spread with honey, jam, butter, or peanut butter.
7
Traditionally bannock would have been made with whatever ingredients were on hand.
8
For example, adding blueberries if they're in season.
9
This freezes well. Freeze, already baked, in a labeled ziploc bag with the air squeezed out as much as possible. To serve, bring to room temperature by removing from the bag and letting rest on the counter for a few hours. SPeed up the process, by baking or microwaving until the desired temperature is reached.

has anyone tried making this wrapped in foil (perhaps greased) and putting directly in a campfire? i was thinking of making a little wicker man for a lughnasad ritual and this would be perfect to put in the straw man's belly to be transformed into food once the figure has burnt. symbolizes the body of the green man (the living grain) sacrificing himself that we might eat

Hi... Make it healthy and yummy by using stevia instead of sugar, cinnamon and raisins or blueberries are great and instead of baking in a pan combine dry ingredients in a baggy and whip them out at your next campfire...add the water to make a stiff dough, divide into portions and roll between your hands to make a long sausage shape wrap around green sticks and bake over the fire ...a great alternative to smores and wieners, kid friendly and delicious...

Came out great. I cut the ingredients in half and mixed all but the water in a zip lock bag. Just add 1/2 cup water and knead in the bag then take out and finish the kneading then spread. I cooked it on a MSR SimmerLite stove and an 8" GSI Hard Anodized pan (no oil required). Fast and easy and will be great for dipping in the camp chili!

Excellent recipe - simple and delicious. I used 1 cup of water and substituted 1/2 cup whole wheat flour. My two boys, aged 7 & 10, ate the whole batch!
