A camping recipe from Cheryl. This is an old bushies bread. I grew up on this as we live in the rural area of Australia. It is cooked at home or out back bush. My family loves it. I hope you enjoy it.
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 0 hour, 0 minute
Ingredients:
  • 4 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons pecan chips
  • a pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup grated cheese
  • 1 teaspoon chives
  • 1 teaspoon crisp bacon, crumbled
  • 1 small onion
Preparation:
Rub the butter into the flour. Add salt. When it looks like crumbs, add water and the rest of the ingredients. Mix with a wooden spoon until it is a sticky dough. Turn out on to a floured board and mold into a round. Place in a well-greased cake tin and cut across to make 8 or 10 servings. Bake (at 35 degrees) for 20 minutes or it sounds hollow when you tap on it. Turn out and serve hot with butter.

Servings: 8-10 pancakes
Preparation time: 30 minutes
