From the Australian Women’s Weekly Gluten-free and Allergy-free cookbook. Haven’t tried so times are as per recipe in cookbook. After first two reviews I have changed the cooking times, hopefully they will reflect the right timing.
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
Delicious with a nice curry. You can add any additional nuts/seeds you desire. Do not know where I got the recipe so I apologise!

This very traditional Australian bread was the staple food of the famous Australian swagman. Traditionally it is cooked in the coals of the campfire but this version is made in your oven. It’s very quick to make and extremely versatile. Damper is a cross between a bread and a scone. It can be either sweet or savoury and the variations are endless – just use your imagination. Try a savoury damper as a side dish with soup. The swaggies often served a plain or sweet damper with butter and golden syrup (corn syrup). Served like this it’s called ‘cockie’s joy’ – a ‘cockie’ being a farm worker, and a ‘boss cockie’ being the person in charge. Damper does not keep well. It is best eaten the day it is made, but it can be frozen and reheated. Give it a try for something different!
