Bannock
Bannock is a variety of flat quick, fried bread or any large, round article baked or cooked from grain. A bannock is usually cut into sections before serving.
Bannock was originally brought to North America by Scottish explorers and traders. Indigenous people in particular Métis adopted bannock in their cuisine in the 18th and 19th centuries probably after their encounters with Scottish fur traders.
As a result, even today many Métis and aboriginal western Canadians often prepare this dish. In western Canada, bannock is much more associated with native and Métis culture than with its Scottish roots.
