Looks great BPJ. Much better than the camp bread I made. I used flour, honey, nuts, powdered milk, and oil. Bisquick looks much better, and easier! That sounds yummy, LED. This was was bland but easy. I usually use brown sugar when we make it from scratch but honey would be really nice. Nuts are great too. They really bulk it up.

I had totally forgotten about bannock until you posted this. Thanks! I'll have to make some again. It's one of those things that always tastes so good on an outdoor adventure. I didn't know there were special recipes for this. I've always used Bisquik. I guess I've been a cheater all along and didn't know it!  Haha. I never thought of using Bisquick until a few weeks ago when a fellow Scouter let Mr in on the Bisquick secret. So much easier than measuring out flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, milk powder, egg powder, honey....

i use Bisquick with a tea spoon of whole dry milk.the bannock,more of a biscuit really,turns out thick and soft.i use warm water if i have it as it seem to "set off" the baking powder into lots of bubbles.as i want my hot bread fast i don't brown it by a fire but just pan fry it.
i hope to post a "how too" at Youtube at some point. I think we're going to try a little milk powdered next time too, Canoe dogs. Thanks for the water tip.'i never would have thought of that but it makes sense. Can't wait for the video. Until Canoedogs gets his video up, here are a couple to get your taste buds working: Ray Mears: http://m.youtube.com/index?desktop_uri=%2F&gl=CA#/watch?v=7AXYqy5zFLE Bacon Bannock an Fish: http://m.youtube.com/index?desktop_uri=%2F&gl=CA#/watch?v=pG3SEusqegg

if you use self rising flour, no additional leavening agents, salt, sugar, canola oil you get a more dense bread... yours looks better than mine....

It would probably pack better for travel that way. This one was a little crumbly and would have been smashed in the pack. I hadn't thought of self-rising flour. Thanks for the tip!

I prefer a more traditional bannock recipe as it does not crumble as much as Bisquick which makes it easier for packing. However your bannock looks great and it is a good time saver if required.
In summer, nothing beats fresh wild blueberry or huckleberry enhanced bannock. Also if you take a small container of real maple syrup for dipping, it is that much better...

Bannock.... Sounds like it should have been the name of aTV series in the "70s
Sorry, couldn't resist.
