Bannock Bread – Traditional frybread
Bannock Bread, also known as frybread, is a simple, traditional flatbread made from flour, baking powder, and water or milk. It has a rich history among Indigenous peoples in North America and is often enjoyed with both sweet and savory toppings. This bread is kneaded until smooth, shaped into flat discs, and then fried in a skillet until golden brown and puffed up. Bannock can be served as a staple alongside various dishes, dipped into stews, or drizzled with honey or topped with fresh jam for a sweet treat. Its ease of preparation and versatile nature makes it a comforting food that resonates with many as a link to cultural heritage and communal gatherings. Description by ChatGPT.

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
2. In a container, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of baking powder, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
3. Start mixing the dry ingredients thoroughly. While mixing, cultivate positive vibes and think happy thoughts.
4. Gradually add about 1 cup of water to the dry mixture, continuing to mix until you form a dough. Add water slowly and as needed to avoid overly wet dough.
5. Dust your work surface with some extra flour, then begin to knead and pound your dough until it's consistent.
6. Flatten the dough on your surface until it's even.

10. Place the mini biscuits on the baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes or until slightly golden.
11. Remove from the oven, and while still hot, butter the tops of each biscuit.
12. Return the biscuits to the oven and set to broil for about 2 minutes, just until the biscuits have a nice, crisp, browned top.
