Never heard of bannock, a melt-in-your-mouth scone-like bread? After Mr. Food tasted it in Canada's largest living history museum, he just had to share the recipe, easily made with pantry staples. Its comforting taste will surely please your gang!

What You'll Need

  • 5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 heaping tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 2 cup water
  • 2 cup vegetable oil

What to Do

  1. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt; mix well. Add raisins and water, mix until combined, then knead dough on a board. Let dough stand for 15 minutes then knead again. Let dough stand for 30 minutes more.
     
  2. Flatten dough with hands to about 1/2-inch thickness. Cut into 16 even wedges.
     
  3. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot, but not smoking, and fry each wedge 2 minutes per side, or until golden. Serve warm.
