Steps:
- Add the flour and baking powder in a bowl.
- Start mixing with a spoon and slowly add in the water (or milk).
- Add the salt and mix with the hands until all the flour is well moistened and it begins to form a ball. If necessary, add water (or milk) or flour to adjust the texture.
- Remove the dough from the bowl and place it on a lightly floured surface, fold it, turn it over and knead it briefly until it is smooth. However, do not knead the dough too much as this will make the damper heavy.
- Preheat the oven to 410°F / 200°C.
- Heat a cast iron pot or Dutch oven in the oven for 5 minutes. Dust the pot with flour and add the dough in it. Flatten the ball of dough to the edges.
- Bake the damper for about 45 minutes or until the top is lightly browned.
- The bread will swell during baking.
- Shake the pot from time to time during baking to ensure even browning.
- The bread is baked when a knife inserted in the center of it comes out clean. The bread should offer a hollow sound when tapped in the center.
- Let the damper sit for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
AUSTRALIAN DAMPER
Damper Bread was a staple of the early Australian settlers' diet. Traditionally, the dough was cooked directly on the coals of an open fire. If you use this method, have a beer handy in case some of the ashes on the damper are still glowing when you eat it!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) Grease a baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, stir together the flour and the salt. With pastry blender or your hands, cut in butter. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the milk and water. Stir until the dough comes together. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and form into a round loaf 8 inches across. Place the loaf onto the prepared pan and using a sharp knife, cut a cross in the top.
- Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, then lower the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue to bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes. The loaf should be golden brown and the bottom should sound hollow when tapped.

AUSTRALIAN BUSH BREAD - DAMPER
Damper is the bush-bread of Australia. Drovers (cowboys) baked Damper in camp ovens buried in the hot ashes of their camp fires in the Outback, but if you don"t want to build a camp fire in your backyard, damper can also be baked in a normal kitchen oven. To eat a damper: Cut the damper into rustic chunky slices, spread a liberal amount of butter on the damper and top with either jam, honey or Golden Syrup. YUM.. You just got to have a cuppa with it.

Steps:

- Rub the the butter cubes, flour and salt together until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. To get the large pieces of butter up to the surface, shake the bowl.
- Gradually add the water until the mixture resembles a soft dough. If it is too stiff after the 200ml add a little more.
- Knead for a minute or two (just gently) until all the dough is fully combined and the salt is evenly dispersed.
- Turn out onto a floured surface and shape into a large, thick disk, roughly 16-18cm wide, but it varies. Make 8 deep slashes across the top in a compass shape. Bake for 30 minutes. After it has turned crusty, turn the oven off and leave until ready to eat.
EASY AUSTRALIAN DAMPER
Damper is a traditional Australian bread. There are probably as many variations as there are people to cook it! This recipe comes from the Australian Women's Weekly cookbook "Muffins, Scones and Breads". This is a very useful recipe for those times when you want to make bread, but don't have time to use yeast. Damper has a hard crust and a fairly close texture. Its not a light bread (not the sort of bread you'd use to make dainty cucumber sandwiches, for example!), but it is tasty and is also good toasted. I have found various surces of information about Damper on the internet and learned that originally Damper would have been cooked in the ashes of a bush fire. The ashes were flattened and the Damper was placed there to cook for 10 minutes. Then the Damper was covered with ashes and coked for another 20-30 minutes. The Damper was cooked until it sounded hollow when tapped. This recipe was posted for Zaar World Tour 2005.

- Combine the flour, salt, baking powder and sugar in a large bowl. Add the butter and use your fingertips to rub it into the flour until it is all incorporated – it should resemble breadcrumbs.
- Gradually add the milk and knead to combine, adding just enough to make a dough that isn’t too sticky and that can be easily kneaded. If it’s too sticky or wet, it will drop off the sticks when it is being cooked. Add a little extra flour if this is the case. Knead in the bowl for about 10 minutes, or until soft and elastic, giving everyone a turn so they all get to join in the fun.
- Divide the damper into six portions, form into balls and shape into ovals around the top of six long, thick sticks. With parental supervision, let the kids cook the bread over the fire for about 10–15 minutes, turning the bread regularly, until golden brown on all sides. When the bread is cooked, it will sound hollow when tapped. Wait for 5 minutes, then remove from the stick and fill with your favorite filling. Makes 6 small breads.
