But I am a little patriotic...

I made damper today with the kids*.

Basically, just a big scone mix (4cups SR flour, tsp salt, 2 tsp sugar, rub in 2 tbsp butter, add 1cup milk, half cup water) chucked in the oven. Be as rough as you like with the mixture.  Spread enough butter and syrup on it and it will be fantastic.

*Well, with one child.  And she wasn't mine.  But all the kids ate it.  Does that still give me good mum points?

  4. Damper is good when you live in a country town and realise at 11am you have no bread for lunch. It's cheaper and better than the bread from the shop. And I don't put milk or butter in it!
