AUSTRALIAN DAMPER

Steps:

• The best way to make this is to mix together the dry ingredients then add the liquid and butter and mix well and then knead it for about 5 minutes.
• Then wrap it in a double layer of greased foil and place it in the coals of the campfire, poking it in and retrieving it a bit later hoping it's done.
• I've also had it where you just throw the dough into the coals and pull off the blacked outside when it's done and eat the inner part.
• To cook it in the oven preheat to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar and mix well. Rub or cut in the butter. Stir in the milk to form a dough.
• Shape into a flattened ball and place on a greased baking sheet or in a round cake tin and bake for about 30 minutes.
• Doing it this way though is not traditional and just won't taste the same.
• You eat it straight away while still hot in thick slices with butter, golden syrup, jam or vegemite.
• This is great camping food and always brings back many happy camping memories.
