Tips
- Use low heat and patience when cooking the bannock to prevent burning.
- Make your own buttermilk substitute if needed.
- Level off the baking soda; too much will give an acidic taste.
- For individual bannocks, divide dough into 8 portions.
- Add 2 teaspoons of fresh thyme or 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese for savory bannock.
- Mix in 2/3 cup of dried fruit for a sweeter bannock
