Bannock bread, one staple recipe no self respecting outdoorsman/survivalist/prepper can live without. I hate to call this a recipe post, as the bannock recipes are as numerous as flame wars over the best rifle for TEOTWAWKI. I do want to share How to Make Bannock Bread so here goes.
Our “recipe” uses flour, a little acorn flour, shortening, salt and baking soda. Some us oil instead of shortening, or add eggs, nuts, or berries. Bannock can be wrapped around a stick and roasted over coals, cooked on a hot rock, directly on clean coals, but I prefer a cast iron skillet over my stove.
Backpackers often mix the dry ingredients and shortening and carry it in plastic bags like bisquick (which is basically is) Then they can just add water at their campsite and have homemade food easily, cheaply, and most importantly lightweight.

It originally came from Scotland. My ancestors ate it & you can make it either sweet or savory.
Thank you, I am glad.

I feel because of you participant, your scale is biased and therefore in accurate. Broccoli is delicious and deserves at least an 8.

I learned what Unleavened bread is thanks to one of the comments below. Your bannock looks great. Boy might like it with a little jam… That's sure how I like it! I will have to try some acorn flour this year. I don't like chestnuts and so have never thought much about acorns. You are a great source of information. Thanks for another great video.
