Don't bother looking for a better bannock recipe, this is the best, and very versatile as well. Today I am wrapping the bannock around wieners, bacon and cheese, then I will deep fry them and watch them disappear. Excellent warm with jam or butter and honey as well. You could add raisins, blueberries the possibilities are endless.

Thank you sooo much for posting this! My aunts and my grandmother and my mother-in-law make the best bannock, and when I'm with them, my bannock turns out okay too! Unfortunatly, I live far away from them and whenever I try making it without thier guidance, it never comes out right. This is exactly the kind of bannock we make at home. Thank you very much for posting. Although, if my kookooms saw me cooking this with a measuring cups and spoons, I would get some gentle ribbing...lol. Again..thank you :D -
We brought the dry ingredients in a Ziploc bag and mixed it up and pan fried it in the backwoods of Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario. It was amazing! So delicious and easy! -
