Instructions

1. 1

   Find sturdy, green sticks about 1 inch thick and 2-3 feet long. Strip 6-8 inches of bark from one end for a clean surface.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, combine self-rising flour with water and olive oil. Add optional savory ingredients if using.

3. 3

   Stir until shaggy dough forms, then knead for 2-3 minutes until smooth and pliable. Adjust with flour or water if too sticky or dry.

4. 4

   Divide dough into golf ball-sized portions. Roll each into a 10-12 inch long snake about 1/2 inch thick.

5. 5

   Lightly grease prepared stick ends with olive oil. Wrap dough snake around stick in spiral, pinching ends firmly to secure.

6. 6

   Let campfire burn down to glowing embers with minimal flames. Hold stick over embers, rotating slowly and continuously.

7. 7

   Cook for 8-15 minutes until golden brown outside and hollow when tapped. Check by sliding one piece off to ensure no raw dough inside.

8. 8

   Carefully slide cooked bread off stick. Let cool for 1-2 minutes, then serve immediately with butter, jam, or preferred toppings.
