How to Make Ash Cakes - A Primitive and Bushcraft Bread or Preppers Food

Ash Cakes - A Primitive and Bushcraft Bread or Preppers Food. Ash Cakes - A historical food dating back to when early humans first started to cultivate grains and process them into breads, pastes, gruels and meals.

How Ash Cakes are cooked are on the ashes of a fire so they are not to burn, but simple to become a chewy bread-like treat. This method of cooking is still in use today by many cultures around the world and as a favorite among many survivalists, bushcrafters and primitive skills enthusiasts.

Ash cakes were popular during the Revolutionary and Civil Wars as an easily carried food source. Ash Cakes have been a simple way to make a meal from simple ingredients like: ground whole wheat flour, pinch of salt and water. Ash Cakes have different names like; Fire Cakes, Indian Bread, Coal Crackers and Ash Bread.

In this video I show three different ways to cook Ash Cakes with three slight variation. I also use one of my favorite ingredients…duck fat as a topping and as a cooking additive. This is a simple backcountry/primitive cooking method that has lasted the tests of time.

If you can’t make it out to a campfire…no worries! You can cook Ash Cakes over stove top with a skillet on LOW HEAT or fry them up in a pan. Either way is fine. Remember, its A way not THE way! Just make it your way.
