Default Aussie Damper.

Aussie Damper.



Self raising flour and water/milk (either works)

in the ratio or 2/3:1

Teaspoon butter.



method.



Mix flour and butter with fingers. Add water slowly. Will form a

solid dough which you can pick up. Add flour/liquid as needed.



To cook.



Authentic method involves shaping a handful of dough around a stick

and cooking slowly over red hot embers of a fire, Them removing from

fire and filling hole with golden syrup/molasses/honey If an open fire

is not a good idea, it cooks well in a loaf on a flat tray in mod oven

(180c/325f approx) for about 15-20 min, then eaten warm with real

butter and spread of choice. It is a heavy bred, similar to scones

and delicious. servings depend on quantity but it always disappears

fast in our house.
