Leon,
If its for bread, try adding a little milk powder. For a more "cake" like finish, add some brown sugar, and maybe some fruit - a few sultanas and glace cherries and you get something like fruit cake. Or, add an egg and make it runnier (tomato soup consistency). Then fry it as a pancake - yumm

Doesn't need to fancy, theres a sort that comes in a plastic Milk Bottle called "five pints" ( cos it makes five pints of milk). Its useful for extended trips for tea and coffee etc. as well as bannock. Its worth keeping all the ingredients separate so you can use the salt, milk powder, marge etc. for other purposes (hence the little bottles and pots we all collect). Why not get some blackberries and bake some in cake or pancake?

Recipe? Bannock?
Whatever you did last time to make bannock, add a three or four desert spoons of sugar (I like brown, but whites fine) and a couple of handfuls of blackberries - thats it mate!

Leon,
Bung it in the oven - medium heat (about 180 - 200) mate. In the field, bake it in your Billy can in the embers or use a Dutch Oven

Heres a list of some stuff I have used in bannock/pancakes:
Walnut Oil. (use it instead of margarine, or fry pancakes in a little oil).
Ground Almonds. (just add a spoonful when mixing dry ingredients).
Pistachio nuts. (or any other nuts you fancy. These need to be bashed up small, and don't add too many, or they stop the dough from rising).
Dried Fruit. (any kind you fancy. soak it in a plastic bottle for a couple of hours, drain it and chop it up small).
Olives. (chopped up small).
Sun Dried Tomatoes. (same as above).
Herbs. (either freshly picked, or dried. Only use less than a Teaspoonfull).
Cheese. ("Stinkier" the better, Parmesan, Stilton, Goat cheese. Either add a small amount to the dough, or stick it on the top, like cheese on toast).
Bacon/Salami. (chopped up small).
Now......Wheres my frying pan gone?

mmm... sounds tasty! Was out camping last week on the North york moors had bannocks with early blackberrys in them, purple and delicious!
Picture time when it turns up Leon!
My SASS Ventile smock is big on me (I'll probablygrow into it too). Great for fitting layers underneath though

Cheers mate, don't let your avatar chase my avatar though . Someone asked me about my foum name so I showed them a picture and thought ....aha new avatar! Was watching countryfile today and one guy has a full time job as a "Red Squirrel Warden" - how cool is that? Patrol the reserve keeping out the American Greys. I suspect it may not work long term, but hey, great job for a while! I remember when I was a lot younger than you having them sit in my hands and eat peanuts (the Red ones that is). Cute little devils, I have a real soft spot for them

Countryfile on Sundays mate BBC1 - good programme - part farming part country matters (hunting, woodland mangement etc.). Nothing very in depth but quite interesting round up of country news - well worth a look. Do you really get Red squirrels (as opposed to Greys?)
