Issu du vieil anglais bannuc(«bouchée»), la bannique est une sorte de pain constituant la nourriture de base dans l'alimentation des premiers colons et des trappeurs. Elle est faite de farine sans levain, de saindoux, de sel et d’eau et a la forme d’une petite crêpe épaisse ou d’un gâteau rond et plat. On y ajoute parfois de la levure chimique. La bannique s’inspire des traditions culinaires de l'Écosse et du Nord de l'Angleterre. 1, record 1, French, - bannique
