Blackfeet Nation Bannock

"This recipe was written down by Chief Earl Old Person, chief of the Blackfeet Nation, and published as part of fundraising cookbook called "Montana Celebrity Cookbook." (1992) My only modification to the published recipe was to clarify the technique. This is traditionally served with roasted meats or with wild berry jams."

  2. Great!!!
     
  3. Tried this recently and was very impressed with how it turned out. Thanks.
     
  4. Easy & quick. Reminds me of biscuits but firmer. Very tasty slathered in butter. The only problem I had was it sent my blood sugars wayyy out of whack... too 'white'. I wonder if a whole wheat version would work? Made for PAC 9/08.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I love to cook on my wood stove. I even chop my own wood. I live in the mountains with a wonderful man, 2 daughters, 1 step daughter, and 1 step son. One daughter has moved away to college---the others are teenagers at home. We have a lot of fun. We also live with 2 dogs, several cats, and a parrot. <br /> <br />When I'm not cooking or chopping wood I work full time as an architect. I love my career, but cooking is my real creative outlet. <br /> <br /><img src=http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b158/bella_donata/My%20Art/Recipezaar/ScrapBook.png border=0 alt=Made /></p>
