Bannock ( my Granny’s recipe)

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.

Wash hands before starting.

In a large bowl, combine 2.5 cups of flour and 2 tablespoons of sugar.

Add 2.5 teaspoons of baking powder and 0.5 teaspoon of salt to the bowl and mix together.

Add 0.5 cup of cubed cold butter and break it up with your hands.

In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of buttermilk and 1 egg, then mix together.

Pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture and mix gently until combined.

Mash the dough into a ball with your hands.

Place the dough on a pan and flatten it out.

Poke the flattened dough with a fork.

Bake in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15 minutes.

Remove the bannock from the oven with adult help.
