Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil
- ¾ cup water
- vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- In a large bowl whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder.
- Then add the olive oil and whisk together with a fork, gradually add water and stir until the dough almost holds together. Move to a lightly floured flat surface and gently knead about 10 times just until the dough comes together (the dough will be sticky, do not overknead).
- Divide into 5 balls and flatten with the palm of your hand. Fry in hot oil (350F/175C)on medium heat (enough to cover the bottom of a medium frying pan), until golden brown on both sides (and cooked on the inside). Drain on a paper towel lined plate and eat warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!

Notes
- Do not cook on too high a heat or they will only cook on the outside.
- The bread can be made with whole wheat flour, although I would only use 1/2-3/4 cup and the remaining all purpose. It can also be baked rather than fried. Baked on a lightly oiled baking sheet in a pre-heated at 350F (180C) for 25 to 30 minutes.
- Although baked Bannock is heavy and dense whereas fried is light and fluffy.
- It is recommended to eat the bread as soon as it is made, this type of bread isn’t advised for storing.
