Though I’d input a little heart warming bit of history of bannock. In America Banncok is still known by name to. However mostly in Native American communities. How this happened is due to the times and the troubles. Scottish folk brought it here and it was shared with native Americans because scots took in and protected native folk. This is widely seen in the evolution of bannock and its iconic areas where it is known still to this day mainly in the southeastern part of America. However most people do now call it a fritter. Who does call it bannock to this day and done so widely is native Americans. I take this as a great honor because i was the first of my blood line to not be only Scottish I am also Chickasaw Native American. Commonly in the Appalachian areas will this be seen because this area has the most gravity of cultural similarities and pure compassion for others. It was a great foood for survival and sharing it was life. Today you will see it called fry bread, fritters, and other things such as corn fritters. The further west you go it acquired more characteristics such as becoming more thin and it being mixed with other recipes such as from the Spanish. Today you will see native Americans perfected bannock and it is available to purchase at many road side areas that date back to the times of past. I see bannock and not just bannock I see it as a symbol of good will and the strength humanity can achieve. Something so simple Scots shared with others saved two people’s and and United them. It paved the way for Appalachian folk, scots and native Americans as well as anyone else that was hungry. It may not mean much to many people in this world but to mean it means a lot. I hope people sleep a little more easy knowing something so simple yet so needed saved a lot of life and created a culture and a unique race of people as well as preserved mainly Scottish immigrants and Native Americans. I can imagine back in those troubled times native and scots sitting down sharing and surviving the most harsh conditions imaginable fraught with misery death murder disease parasites war and etc. god only knows but as always the most simple things mean the most but are also the most forgotten of all. Bannock is a symbol to me a very powerful symbol. Ive seen it being called by name being shared and prepared on a stick over an open fire, on rocks used as a skillets, in fats, deep fried, oven baked, mostly in a skillet with butter or oil, but mostly when I hear the word bannock or see it as symbol overcoming oppression and troubled times. Because of bannock a lot of people survived. Imagine a bread so good it preserves two races while creating a new and unique race that I am proud to call myself Appalachian.
I love that you reference the history of Bannock as being Scottish in origin; the Scots people were cooking bread in this fashion long before they explored and immigrated to North America; the word Bannock is of Gaelic origins, but the idea of bread baked on a heated flat surface is universal (kind of like the chicken and the egg, who thought of the idea first, no one knows); another thing I like about Scottish and Indigenous peoples histories are how we share so much in common from having a tribal/clan system to being up rooted and our homes taken and having our language and traditions destroyed to the point of extinction
in fact I believe the cooking of bread on a heated flat surface could date back before the advent of Christianity itself, if we want to get real historical ;)
@@charmeyn2 yea, problem with that is bannock is a specific recipe and it’s called by a specific name. So your analogy is just petty and redundant. Thanks for attempting to be captain obvious though.
I got some pretty dirty looks when I explained where bannock came from to a native guy once. I mean I can’t lie about history lol. Fun fact, the word bannock is Scottish in origin “banoich” which simply means “bread” 🤷♂️ Edit actually the word comes from Latin panicium. (Pronounced pa-nee-kee-um) Banoich is just the Gaelic version of this. Also excuse me for sounding like a know-it-all lol
I always make these for Beltane ( today!). My family came to Virginia USA from Scotland in the early 1800’s. I’m trying to keep some traditions alive! Thank you. I’ll put raisins/dried fruit and vanilla in mine this year. 🙏🏻
Hey Pajerico! Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪 Thank you so much for this amazing recipe 😋 I made the bannock today for my birthday breakfast and it was so unbelievable delicious!
Good ta hear from ya. Was startin to wonder what kinda fun you were having without us! Never thought of makin a sweet bannock. It only makes sense tho. I have made probably hundreds of personal size bannock while camping out when we were salmon fishing. Have relatives over the border in Canada and it was just the thing to do. Endless coffee and bannock. Other stuff too but fresh fish, corn on the cob (cuz it was in season) rice with hooligan oil and bannock was the basic menu. Bannock, eggs and beans in the morning. We'd pick berries and make jam on the fire. My goodness homemade bannock and jam! Folks, I gotta tell ya. Regardless of where, when or why bannock is a blessing to make sure not to miss. Gonna stir some up with vanilla and raisins for tonite. Husband Steven will be thrilled. Thanks P. Love from across the distant pond. Sis. Please don't pass up the like button friends. Consider subscribing too. And that bell will make a pretty sound on your phone, if you push it, you won't miss a thing. Cheers 🙊🙉🙈
Hey Janice. Do you mean oolichan oil? Are you talking about Native friends across the border? I’m from Vancouver Island and I know that Natives used to dip their bread in the oil from the fish they processed. I don’t know if they still do eat the oolichan, what I’ve read about seems to be more in the past. I went to a Native gathering to celebrate their children graduating from high school and a lovely meal was served. The elders are always served first. I tried one delicious dish which was salmon eggs laid on hemlock branches. Very, very good!
Doing fine here thanks, hope all is well with you also, I see your truck is ready to explore again, let's hope it won't be long until we can all get back to it :)
Hello Pajerico, I hope you are well 😊 I'm going to ban myself from watching your cooking videos this early in a morning 00.33, 🙈 makes me so hungry. I made the oaty biscuits, was lovely but 3 cups of tea and 3 each biscuits later, all gone in 1 day 😔 Never heard of this bread but I'm going to try it and definitely adding raisins. Looked so good too. Think I'll have to settle for piece of toast and cup tea before I go to bed.... take care 🤗🐢🦐🐟
Hello there Paj! Good to see this recipe as I’ve wondered how Bannocks were made. I’m going to try them tomorrow. I think for my first batch I’ll make them savoury with herbed butter. The next batch will be with chopped dates, cinnamon and just a teeny, tiny drop of almond extract instead of vanilla. I’ll let you know how it comes out. Maybe one of these days I’ll try out some of the Gaelic. Been taking classes (found out on one of those dna sites that I’m about 1/4 Irish, so I felt the need!) and I’ve no one here to practice on. hahaha! You take good care and be well. God bless! 🙏🏼❤️
Discover With Pajerico I agree! The rolling of the “R” is proving to be most difficult for my flat American accent. But never fear-I will prevail! (any chance you will allow me to stumble through writing simple msgs for you to respond to? And no fair trying to respond with something bizarre such as “no, I havena had that green badger in quite some time” just to confuse me! 🤨
Another one to try, the nearest thing I've done are Welsh cakes which are cooked in a pan. I hate raisins so usually sub in dried cranberries in recipes or maybe a plain one.

Were you raised in the Edinburgh area, by any chance? Thank you for posting this video, I'm dying to whip some of these up!!
Yeah I'm near Edinburgh
Waiting for the next culinary class, what's next? Clootie dumplings? Bridies?
Its what I'm calling the French German
Hmmmm 🤔
Do you put butter on top ?
I would normally cut in half and put butter and jam inside
Look out Gordon Ramsey!
🤣
