How I Bake Bannock Bread | Baked in a 750ml Bush Pot on a Twig Stove

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil offers a dairy-free option with similar fat content.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: bread flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients, while bread flour is often less expensive.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk is a dairy-free alternative; water can reduce costs.

baking powder

🥗Healthier: baking soda + vinegar

💰Cheaper: self-rising flour

Self-rising flour combines flour and leavening agents for convenience.

Mix the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder) in a ziploc bag.

Zip the bag closed, leaving a little open for air, and mix until combined.

Gradually add water to the dry mix, aiming for a play-dough-like consistency.

Once mixed, use hands to form the dough into a ball inside the bag.

Light the twig stove to prepare for cooking.

Shape the dough into a rectangle the size of the grill.

Place the dough on the grill, then insert it into the pot.

Cover with a lid and secure it with a paper clip to create an oven effect.

Cook for about 30 minutes on the stove.
