WATTLESEED DAMPER

INGREDIENTS


3 cups of self raising flour
1 1/2 teaspoons of salt
60g of butter
30g ground, roasted Wattle Seed
1 cup of milk

METHOD

1. Sift flour and rub in butter. Then add salt and wattle seed (before adding wattleseed heat in a dry pan first to release the flavour, careful not to burn).
2. Make a well in the centre and pour in the milk. Stir until combined.
3. Knead for a few minutes and mould into a flat ball.
4. Cut 2 slits in the top, brush with a little milk and bake in a preheated oven (200C) for 30 mins.

 

I've also made this like scones and rolled out to a thickness of about 3cm (more or less) and then cut into squares or shapes

Makes about 12 large scones or otherwise can be cut up much smaller.

HI Kerrie, Thankyou for your comments, glad you like the site and that it has inspired you to explore more about this country. My passions are similar to yours and I have found that the more that I explore Aboriginal spirituality the more I realize, not only how important it is to all the inhabitants of this country, but how interesting it is, you just want to learn more and more. The native plants and food are part of this land and it just makes sense to also learn more about them and start using them in our own diets.

Just curious how many scones this recipe would make roughly?
I am taking part in an expo soon and would love to use a recipe like this so that our guests can try some food
