According to Encyclopedia Britannica, bannock bread originates in Scotland. It is similar in taste and texture to a scone and is an excellent food for transporting on long trips. Once the main ingredients are put together before a journey begins, usually flour, oats, baking powder, salt and perhaps dried berries and raisins, it can be cooked on location over a campfire in a frying pan, or on a stick by first mixing the dry ingredients with water and some kind of fat. It is then fried, or wound on a stick and cooked directly over the flame. It can be made at home on the stove or in the oven. In Canada, Bannock bread is a nickname given to a Native American food early settlers encountered as they blazed their trail from east to west across the country. Ingredients were similar to the Scottish version, and the fat used might have been bear or moose. Today the recipe calls for butter or some form of vegetable oil, though people adhering to tradition may still use an alternative animal fat. Once cooked it may be dipped in fat or slathered with honey.
