BUTTERMILK BANNOCK



Buttermilk Bannock image

Yummy Scottish bread. Great flavor and naturally low fat! Great bread for sweet or savory uses. I posted this recipe for the Zaar World Tour 2005- Scotland. This recipe was modified by me after experimenting with a recipe by the same name found on page 331 of "Prairie Home Cooking" by Judith M. Fertig, which reads... "This is a simple bread of the dispossessed. Brought to Canada by the Scots who were displace3d from their lands during the infamous 'clearances' of the late 1700's. Bannock would eventually become one of the first breads that Native Americans learned to make when they were confined to reservations in the prairie states......" I pride myself on being both Scottish and American Indian as well as a pretty good genealogist and a history buff. This recipe was well-researched before posting to Zaar as such.

This recipe was written down by Chief Earl Old Person, chief of the Blackfeet Nation, and published as part of fundraising cookbook called "Montana Celebrity Cookbook." (1992) My only modification to the published recipe was to clarify the technique. This is traditionally served with roasted meats or with wild berry jams.
