Cheesy Wholemeal Dampers

Breadfest couldn't continue on without the addition of damper..but not just your standard damper...we want to infuse it with cheeeeeeeese!


Cheesy Wholemeal Dampers


Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups wholemeal self raising flour
• 1 1/2 cups of self raising flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup grated fresh parmesan cheese
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 1/4 cup fresh chives
• 1/4 cup sunflower kernels
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2/3-3/4 cup water
• 2 teaspoons plain flour
• butter, optional

Sift self raising flours and salt into a bowl. Stir in cheese, herbs and kernels.  Make a well in the centre; stir in milk and enough water to form a soft dough.

Turn dough out on to a lightly floured surface, knead gently until smooth.  Divide into six portions, knead gently until smooth.  Rill into balls; flatten slightly.

Using a sharp knife, cut a small cross on top of each damper.  Dust with sifted flour; place on lightly greased oven tray.

Cook in a very hot oven 230 degrees celsius for 10 minutes, reduce to moderately hot 190 degrees celsius, cook for a further 10 minutes, or until lightly browned and damper sounds hollow when tapped.

I love it served warm with butter!
