Makes about 12 / A real crowd-pleaser for kids and adults alike. Perfect with a dinnertime bowl of chili or as breakfast paired with fresh fruit.

Camp Tip: If you're car camping with a cooler, make the dough and garlic butter before leaving home and transport in plastic containers.

Cooking spray
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons plus 2 tablespoons expeller-pressed oil spread or butter
1 cup nonfat milk
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
2 ounces ham or soy vegetarian substitute, diced
3-4 green onions, chopped, including green parts
1 clove garlic, minced or pressed

Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and preheat over medium fire or heat.

In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. Cut in 5 tablespoons spread or butter a bit at a time, until mixture looks coarse and crumbly. Add milk, cheese, ham or soy, and green onions. Stir together to form a thick dough.

Melt remaining 2 tablespoons spread or butter in a metal measuring cup and add garlic.

Drop golf-ball-size spoonfuls of dough into the hot skillet and promptly flatten with a spatula to about 1/4-inch thick. Cook, turning regularly and basting lightly with melted butter, until onions darken and bread is a deep golden brown. Eat immediately.
