Beer Damper cooked on Crikey camping tours

Beer damper is one of many variations available. Damper is a traditional bread baked in the coals of an open fire or in a camp oven. It is just as easy to bake it in a normal oven though.

Beer Damper in the oven -

INGREDIENTS

• 4 cups self raising flour
• 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
• 375 ml beer

• Place flour in a bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the butter and beer.
• Mix it to a soft dough. Add extra flour if you need to. Shape the dough into a ball and flatten it slightly.
• Wrap the ball in aluminum foil and place in the centre of the oven on medium heat (375degrees).
• Bake it until it has risen and brown - about 25-30 minutes.
