Bannock is a variety of flat quick bread or any large, round article baked or cooked from grain. A staple food of many indigenous peoples in North America, it is traditionally made from a variety of grains and was prepared by mixing water and grain flour, then baking it on hot stones or in ashes. Modern recipes often use baking powder or soda for leavening and are often pan-fried or baked in an oven. The dish is quite versatile and can be adapted to include various ingredients for different flavors.
