Oh Jersey milk! I can imagine that would have been the creamiest milk, what luck to have it raw and available to you. Lovely memories, thank you so much for sharing one 😊
These look very good, comfort food. We do support a local dairy which has their milk in glass bottles, the whole milk has cream on the top.yum! It is always best to support local farmers as much as possible.
Hi Faith, that sounds lovely, yes I do think it is so important to support local where possible, it would be a disaster if all we had was large corporations. Whole milk with the cream on top is Adams favourite, I can only have small amounts of dairy due to medical reasons but prefer “real” dairy for when I do. 😊
Hi Guycalgary7800, thank you for your comment, you just brought back a memory for me too, when we lived on a dairy farm when I was young and we would very occasionally get frosted flakes ( Frosties) 🙏
We used to have fresh, local milk delivered in glass bottles when I was a child. Also, until the 1990s, Stewart's stores used to see milk in glass gallon bottles which we returned for reuse. Milk tasted so much better! Thank you for this recipe! I will definitely try it.
@@debpratt52 Thank you for stopping in by. A gallon glass milk bottle! Now that would have been very handy. Let me know how you get on with this recipe, it’s great for some outdoor cooking 😊
Hi Ruth, we were so grateful for the farmer investing in the milk dispensing machine, which is now very well supported. I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😊
@@carlflippin9994 Hi Carl, thank you for stopping in by, I spoken yo a number of people this year that have been tracing their ancestral roots this year. I hope the recipe works well for you, let me know how you get on 😊
@@ahumblehighlandhome-scotla8636 normally a biscuit is baked. Scones are kinda equivalent to biscuits. However, women in the southern United States mountain regions have been known to just fry biscuit dough or cornbread batter instead of baking.
@@ahumblehighlandhome-scotla8636 when you have 25% Scottish DNA it makes things a lot easier. Yes, I have a good knowledge of my ancestry. And yes, my family has been in America since the 16th Century. I am a descendant of the Mayflower and the Caroline ( Jamestown) and probably the Lost Colony of Roanoke. I am a descendant of the First Families of both Virginia and Georgia, and a great grandfather signed the Declaration of Independence and a cousin wrote it. My wife is a descendant of the First Famines of the United States.
Hi, This is the recipe that I follow but there will be other recipes that you could try or you could cook it up using a plain or alternative flour and let me know how you get on. 😊
I accidentally made butter when I was whipping cream for a jubilee cake 🙈 but the buttermilk made great scones and the butter was soon gone. Have you tried Orkney bere bannocks? They are lovely. Bere is barley flour as barley grows well in Orkney.
Oh no! Great ways to use everything though, and it all sounds lovely. I havn’t tried Orkney bere bannocks, I will have to do a bit of investigation. Thank you for the recommendation, I like to try new things.
Thank you so much, unfortunately I didn’t note the title of the music but all of the music that feature in my videos is from Epidemic Sounds. Noting the title is something I will do in the notes in future. 😊
I wish we still had diaries that sold milk. We got it delivered to the door several times a week - 2 half gallons. We bought it from R.L. Mathis Dairy in Atlanta, GA, USA. It was great milk. We even had a little icebox, provided by the dairy, to keep our milk in after it was delivered. I drank a lot of milk with Ovaltine and Nestles Quick, when I was a boy. It was a lot better than the diluted milk super markets sell as whole milk, today.
Hi John, I would have to agree, when my dad came out of the military we spent time living on a dairy farm drinking raw milk. Unfortunately it is illegal now in Scotland to buy & sell raw milk. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience 🙏
We can thank capitalism and corporations for buying up and bullying little family businesses that provided us with good food. Now, all they care about is getting addicted to manufactured foods that aren’t good for us so they can make big profits. Power to the people.
@@ryuhabdle9 that’s the way the cookie crumbles. Capitalism is what built this country. Get an education and participate in it or stay ignorant and swill at the public trough. , like so many these days.
Hi Valerie, thank you for your comment and question. I don’t see why you couldn’t replace the flour for an alternative flour like oat flour, you might have to add some additional baking power though. Give it a try and let us know how you get on. Take care 😁
U wouldn’t just use oat flour, maybe half & half. Or add some rolled oats for some flour. Maybe top the bannock with rolled oats too (2tbsp?), pressed into the dough and put that side down first.
I will make it with at least 75% fresh ground whole wheat soft flour for the healthiness. And prob 25% oat flour (love oats) Plus we prefer the whole grains taste.
Yea yea all very pretty but see …… I do get have a coo , and we aren’t American so we don’t use cups . Nor do I have a fancy kitchen and making these while camping …. In Scotland ……., the wind ….. the gales ….. less romance more practicality please 🤨
@@janicegray511 Hi Janice, thank you for taking the time to comment, it’s a shame you don’t find this video as practical as you might like. Our kitchen is far from “fancy” but we like to make the most of what we have. I use many different ways to measure ingredients, and I find that this is a great recipe that can be prepared ahead of time before cooking outside by mixing all the dry ingredients for transportation and just adding the milk last which can be done whilst camping. We do have our share of wind and gales here in Scotland but we are also blessed with some beautiful weather too, which is when most people that enjoy camping in the great outdoors head out. Enjoy the rest of your day, take care. 😊
@@YeshuaKingMessiah Alot of people do use plastic cartons from the supermarkets but we actively sought out the dairy to use. I know that these places are becoming more rare and choices are less so given we do have access to the dairy we like to support the farmer. 😊
Thank you for sharing your bannock making in this peaceful video.
You are welcome, I’m so glad you liked it. 😊
This video brings me back to when I was a boy on the farm. We had a Jersey cow, from which we had milk, cream, buttermilk and homemade butter.
Oh Jersey milk! I can imagine that would have been the creamiest milk, what luck to have it raw and available to you. Lovely memories, thank you so much for sharing one 😊

Thank you for the lesson! It’s wonderful to see support of a local dairy.
I am glad you liked the video, we are gradually coming away from large chain supermarkets and buy direct where we can. It makes such a difference. 🙏
You sound so caring and adorable, and you look so happy and healthy. Thank you bless you 🌿💐

In America 🇺🇸 we call them pancakes 🥞.
What a lovely way. I loved the video. Thank you for sharing.
@@christinecat1981 Thank you Christine, we do have pancakes too which are similar and also lovely with some butter and jam. 😊
Fresh farm milk on frosted flakes for breakfast is still a great memory from my childhood .

Welcome @Dollcan, thank you for your comment. Yes indeed the stove top or a campfire also work very well 😊
I found your channel just now. Both of my parents have Scottish ancestry. I want to learn to make this lovely bread. God bless you.❤
A very warm welcome, it’s lovely to have you here, I hope this video is helpful to you 😊
So glad I found your videos. Been looking for a video on how to make these bannocks, I’m desperate to try making them. Thank you 😁

i keep a 1 quart /liter canning jar in my fridge for when i want to make fresh butter. about 1/8 tsp salt is what i use.

I make butter with my stand mixer and the whisking attachment. It takes about 15 minutes. I atdd a teaspoon of salt to the butter it creates.

It took ten minutes of shaking the milk (we did not separate the cream out) to get the butter we wanted. Nice memory.

Indeed it can take a while if the cream content is low. It kept us amused for ages when we were kids. Thank you for sharing this. 😊
