Aussie Damper - Sweet or Savoury- You Decide image

A really easy damper recipe- I remember making these when I was still at school. To make a savoury damper, you can really add any herbs of choice, such as chopped parsley, chives, cracked black pepper. Damper is usually served with lashings of butter or for a sweet damper with butter, honey, golden syrup or strawberry jam

Yield 1 damper, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

250 g self-raising flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
25 g unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
175 ml milk
110 g tasty cheese or 100 g cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons golden syrup or 2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons caster sugar

  • Using a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour and the salt.

This damper is okay, but it's not my favorite. I prefer a more traditional bread recipe.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my damper didn't rise properly. It was flat and dense.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my damper didn't turn out right. It was too dry and crumbly.

This damper is a bit too dense for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
