    Very happy I found this video. It brought back wonderful memories. I was a trapper's helper for a season with a Cree trapper in northern Saskatchewan in the mid-1980's. His wife made us bannocks and put them in the grub box to take with us on the trapline. He taught me how to bake bannock like this in the wood stove in the trapping cabin, and taught me all sorts of things about trapping, bushcraft and Cree culture. It was the best experience of my life.

    I made bannock yesterday (National day of truth and reconciliation) for the first time in years. My mom made the best bannock. It took me 3 tries to get it right. My mom always used milk, like your kokum did, and she put an egg in hers if I remember right. I tried that in my last batch and that tasted the closest to what I remember my mom's tasting like. This tutorial was very helpful, and hearing Cree again was sweet.

    This is recipe that I've used making my biscuits, I don't poke dough with fork but cut out and bake about 425 degrees oven for about half hour. Eat hot with butter and jam or pour gravy on top. I have Scottish Ancestry and this bread is called Scottish Bannock Bread which is a quick bread cooked from flour, typically round biscuit sized and is common in Scotland and other British Isles. The name Bannock originates from Old Celtic English "bannuc" derived from the Latin "panicium" for "bread" or meaning "anything baked". There are varying recipes of this bread that began in the 8th Century and it's still baked today!😊 can also be made with oatmeal and flour.

    Thank you, Mrs. Cunningham, for sharing your Bannock recipe, and your history of making it with your Grandmother. I am Anglo-Irish decent, and this is very similar to our Tea Biscuit recipe. I’m going to try the campfire version of this - what a smart idea. It was very touching, the way you made a large oval for your late husband. Our Grandchildren need to be taught about Canada’s relationship with our Indigenous peoples - the bad and the good, and to participate in classroom activities, like making Bannock, Mask making, Beading, etc., to go along with the History. Bless you and your family. Thank you for sharing. mîkwêc 💜

    I always find it amazing in the cooking hobby how close most soda bread recipes are to each other in ingredients, for example same ingredients will make you a biscuit yet its the technique and local ingredients that set them apart and make them unique. all are masters of the recipe and all have made me fat and happy over the years. bannock is definitely best with a fresh jam, honey, or maple butter.

      Yes they have damper in Australia which is basically the same. Camp fire unleavened but shortened bread. Great for when you're taking over a country!! Fat and carbs and protien easy to form and carry and quickly make on a fire. European breads are all similar like this ..but some use soda to raise some use shortening to raise it and some use yeasts. But all basically come from Europe and were spread by the colonisers or pioneers. It was also used in war times because of how suited it is to long treks. Yeast bread not so easy on a war mission. Nor as much calories. It will definitely keep you fattened up if you aren't tracking somewhere far away every day to slaughter natives.

    My best friend from HS, loved this. We used to watch her grandmother make Bannock over the campfire at her cottage. It took me about 100x trying to get mine not to burn before I got it right. My friend passed away in a hunting accident in Alberta in 2002. Every year on her birthday, I get out HER families recipes she gave to me, and cook them, and celebrate her birthday July 7th. I celebrated her 53 this Summer. Peace and good health! Thanks for sharing 😊

    Thank you so much for this video. As a Navajo I've seen so many people talk about bannok and I can't wait to try it. It reminds me of the way my family makes "oven bread " but I just roll my dough into rolls and place them in a greased cast iron skillet and then top with butter when they come out of the oven. Let it cool for a few minutes just like you said, flip the skillet over and take the bread out. Thank you for the video!!! I can't wait to have some with butter and jam! 😋💕💕💕😊😊😊

    I’m not Native American, but I want this lady as my nana and hope all Native Americans watch this and teach their kids and always keep their traditions and culture alive. It’s very important and good for the history of everyone. Regardless of where your culture comes from, all people can see the love this lady projects and shares. We all may look different and speak different and have different beliefs, but love is universal and it’s language is clear. It is how we survive and carry forward the things that bind us as a brotherhood of people.
