bread for survival

Survival Breads
Food storage options for bread making

Bread is a classic sustenance for survival in most every culture.
There are many references to bread for survival:

  • "Give us this day our daily bread" takes on a very important
    meaning for preppers! And there are more references to
    bread making in the bible:

  • "Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans,
    and lentils, and millet, and fitches, and put them in one
    vessel, and make thee bread thereof... -Ezekiel 4:9"

Variety certainly will make survival more bearable, and as such,
preppers thinking of enhancing their food storage system should
take a closer look at
grains and breads.

Survival Bread and Food Storage
Preppers plan a variety of breads in their food storage. Many
preppers choose to store hearty and wholesome hard red wheat
and or the lighter and more popular white wheat, and then grind
it themselves to make not only breads, but also biscuits, muffins,
pizzas,
cookies and more.

Start by grinding your own hard wheat and then you can expand
your bread selection start making breads from other grains, such
as
corn, rye and oats. See more in our grains for preppers pages.

Here is a list of popular breads for preppers:

  • Bannock Bread. Bannock bread is a crude and nutritious
    bushcraft-style of survival bread that's baked over an open
    fire. Here's how to bake Bannock Bread. See also hard tack.

  • Bread in a can! B&M Brown Bread at the bottom of the
    page, is a bread immediately edible from the can, and is
    often served with beans. See also the canned bread mixes at
    the bottom of the page.

  • Cornbread. Pioneers baked cornbread in a cast iron skillet.
    Today, preppers use corn meal to make corn bread, pancakes
    and muffins. They also use this course flour to coat meats
    and to keep artisan breads from sticking to the pan. You'll
    find corn meal is a very useful item in the prepper's pantry.

  • Ezekiel bread. You don't need to be religious to enjoy
    Ezikiel bread! Ezekiel Bread (sometimes also called "Bible
    Bread" or "Manna Bread") is a bread baked from a specific
    recipe found in the Old Testament, which reads "Take thou
    also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils,
    and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessel, and
    make thee bread thereof... -Ezekiel 4:9" When you combine
    these six grains and legumes an amazing thing happens: the
    combination forms a complete protein! You'll find many
    recipes for Ezekiel Bread on the web, but they all call for the
    these six grains. The Handy Pantry Sprouting Ezekiel Bread
    Grain Mix is certified organic, and has the perfect proportion
    of grains to help you bake delicious and wholesome Ezekiel
    Bread. An Ezekiel bread sprouting mix, made with the
    organic ingredients specified in Ezekiel 4:9. Highly
    nutritious, high in fiber and the perfect combination of
    protein, this hearty bread is a healthful choice for preppers

    needs because it comes in a #10 can.

  • Fry Bread. Fry bread is the traditional bread of Native
    Americans. It's perfect for Indian Tacos.

  • Hard tack. Hard tack was a bread baked and eaten by
    pioneers and during the civil war. It's more of a hard cracker
    than bread. Soldiers and pioneers moistened their hard tack
    by dipping it in coffee, much the way Italians dip their
    biscotti. Consider also learning how to make bannock bread,
    which has a fluffier consistency, though also a hard-cracker
    like bread. Here's how to make hard tack.

  • Irish soda bread.

  • Meals Ready to Eat (MRE). You may be able to find Military
    Ration Wheat Snack Bread as pictured right, as part of Meals
