Trail Bread Mix
3 cups white flour
1 tsp. of salt 1 tsp. baking powder Mix ingredients and store in a sack.
To make: Open sack… Make small bowl in top of mix with finger… Add a small amount of water into bowl… Make small dough ball… Flatten dough ball, should be about 2” across… Bake in hot ash or on a hot rock or on a stick…
Or
Fry in bacon grease. Four to six of these make a dandy breakfast with a warm cup of your favorite brew.
Hard Tack (Pre-made Trail Bread)
(1) 2 cups of white flour 2cups of honey
(2) 1 cup of white flour 1cup of whole-wheat flour 1 cup of corn meal 2 cups of honey
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees… Warm the honey… Mix all ingredients… If dough is too thick, thin with hot water… Grease cupcake tin… Fill only ¼ to ½ full… Bake till done… Both recipes will keep forever and do not need refrigeration. (MORE honey = harder bread)
Beans for on the Trail
Hint: Soak over night… Pre-cook till ¾ done… Drain off water… Spread out to dry… Beans will shrivel up and get very ugly Put in sack… Makes cook time on the trail faster.
