Bannock on a Stick | Brewers Campground at Gull Lake

Course: Breakfast, lunch, Snack
Servings: 4
Author: Wanda Baker

Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 4 tbsp butter cold
  • 2 tsp white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 ziplock bag

Instructions

  • In ziplock bag combine flour, baking powder, butter, sugar and salt. Seal and squishy the bag until butter is crumbly. Write on bag "Add 1/2 cup water". Put in refrigerator or cooler.
  • At your campsite, prepare yourself a roasting stick. Set aside.
  • When ready to make bannock, add water to bag, seal and squishy until mixture starts to form a dough ball. Remove from bag and on cutting board, form into 4-6 balls.
  • Roll each ball into a long log and wrap around ends of roasting stick. Roast over hot fire, but not to close as to burn the outside. This part takes time since you want to cook the inside without burning the outside. Turn slowly, it will take anywhere from 10-20 minutes.
  • When the bread is brown on the outside, has puffed up a little and feels cooked on the inside it is ready.
