Ingredients

  • 3 cups Self-raising flour
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Dairy-free milk (e.g., almond or soy)
  • 1/4 cup Golden syrup

Instructions

  1. 1Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
  2. 2In a large mixing bowl, combine the 3 cups of Self-raising flour and the 1/2 tsp of Salt. Stir these dry ingredients together thoroughly with a spoon.
  3. 3Gradually pour the 1 cup of Dairy-free milk into the dry ingredients. Mix with your hands or a spoon until a soft, shaggy dough forms and no dry flour remains in the bowl.
  4. 4Turn the dough out onto a clean, dry work surface. Gently knead the dough for 1 to 2 minutes until it comes together into a smooth, round shape, approximately 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) in diameter.
  5. 5Carefully transfer the shaped dough onto a baking sheet. Bake it in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. 6Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the damper cool slightly on the baking sheet for 5 to 10 minutes; this allows it to firm up before slicing. Slice the damper into wedges and drizzle the 1/4 cup of Golden syrup over each slice before serving.
