BANNOCK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375ºF.
• Mix all dry ingredients into a big bowl. Add water or milk and add the oil of your choice. Mix all ingredients together until the batter becomes like bread dough, not sticky.
• Put flour onto table surface then roll the dough with your fists for about 2 minutes, like making a bread dough. Pound the dough into a round ball then slowly expand the dough by making it nice and round about half inch thick and should be round like a pie plate. Make holes with a fork by poking it all around the dough from top to bottom.
• Then with your cookie sheet ready put the bannock onto cookie sheet and bake it at 375ºF until it becomes golden brown. Spread lard on the bannock when it comes out of the oven to keep it moist and delicious.

SCOTTISH BANNOCKS RECIPE

Steps:

• If you're making your own buttermilk do that first (see notes).
• Mix your oatmeal, salt and flour together in your bowl.
• Measure our your buttermilk, if you've made extra, and add the baking soda.
• Add your buttermilk mixture slowly to the oatmeal and flour mix, you may not need it all so add around a cup then use a spoon to bring it together before continuing with the rest if necessary.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and split into two.
• Manipulate the dough into a flat circles the right size to suit your griddle, skillet or frying pan. Be careful not to handle the mixture too much at this stage to avoid taking any air the baking soda has added from it.
• Heat your griddle/skillet with a little oil.
• Indent your dough slightly to provide 4 sections, like you would a pizza.
• Once it's hot add the dough to your griddle/skillet.
• You should only have to turn your bannock once, leave it to brown on the underside but don't be afraid to give it a shuggle to make sure it's not stuck to the surface of the pan.
• Once you're sure it's cooked turn the bannock over to lightly brown the other side. You should be able to tap it and hear a hollow sound.
• If your bannock is too thick you may need to cook for longer on the second side but this will depend on your griddle/skillet size.
