We haven't had a good bannock thread in awhile so I thought I'd start one. I found several good recipes off this site for a recent trip. My son really wanted to make it, it was a big hit with our group and is now on our list for things to make in camp. We mixed the basic flour, baking powder, salt recipe with a couple of teaspoons of garlic powder and pepper. Butter was the preferred topping as we fried it -- it really wasn't much different than what I would consider "fry bread".

I always thought the recipe was from the Native People and the early Europeans adapted it. Turns out that was wrong.

Whoever came up with it did good that's for sure. 

So here's the next bannock recipe that I want to try: Make up the basic bannock recipe. Fry up two separate dollops of the mix on a flat skillet. Layer on top of one of the dollups some pepperoni, sliced provolone, anything else that can fit on top (veggies) and then flip the other dollop. Hopefully the whole things hangs together for sort of a calzone-type sandwich. That's it.

If you use baking powder to leaven bannock, add a little cream of tartar.  It helps the baking powder do its job.

Jiffy pizza dough mix is my goto for fry pan bread.  Easy, lots of options, inexpensive.
