Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 cups self-raising flour
1 tsp salt
20 g butter (cold, and chopped)
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
2 tsp rosemary (chopped, divided into 2 portions)

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 180˚C (360˚F), and line a tray with baking paper.
Next, place the self-raising flour, salt in a large mixing bowl (along with half the rosemary if using). Chop the butter into small cubes, pop it to the flour mix and rub it into the flour with your hands to combine.
Form a well in the centre, then pour in the milk and water. Give everything a really good stir until it forms a nice dough.
Divide the dough into four portions for tasty mini dampers, or make one large damper.
Now pop your dough onto the lined tray and slice a cross into the top using a sharp knife.
Optional: Garnish with remaining rosemary.
Bake for around 25 mins at 180˚C (360˚F) until your gorgeous damper is golden brown and delicious. Tap the bottom and your damper should sound hollow - that's when you know you're done!

This was once traditionally cooked in the ground. Posted for ZWT8, found on Aussie Cooking.com. I've seen lots of damper recipes, but this is the first with coconut. Sounds more like a scone... please review and let me know!

Time 1h35m

Yield 1 loaf, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat)
1 pinch salt
3/4 cup milk (a bit more if using whole wheat flour)
1 cup desiccated coconut
1 tablespoon oil

Steps:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
Mix all ingredients in a bowl, pour into a greased or baking paper lined tin.
Bake at 300F for an hour then 350F for an additional 20-30mins.
Slice and eat warm with butter or cool and slice and use like toast for breakfast -- with lots of butter.

Tips:

1. Use fresh coconut: Fresh coconut adds a delightful flavor and aroma to the damper. If fresh coconut is unavailable, you can use unsweetened desiccated coconut. 2. Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in a tough damper. Mix the ingredients until just combined. 3. Let the batter rest: Allowing the batter to rest for a few minutes before baking will help the coconut absorb the moisture and produce a tender damper. 4. Bake the damper in a hot oven: A hot oven will help the damper rise quickly and develop a crispy crust. 5. Serve the damper warm: Coconut damper is best served warm, slathered with butter and jam.

Conclusion:

Coconut damper is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. With its moist and tender crumb, crispy crust, and sweet coconut flavor, this damper is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a tasty and unique bread recipe, give coconut damper a try!
