*Reviewed during ZWT5 Family Picks Australia and New Zealand for Chow Hounds Team* Perfect plain damper that my family enjoyed with dinner tonight. SO easy to make and tasted just right. You can add extras to this damper like herbs, sprinkle cheese over the top or add in dried fruits to make it sweeter, such as sultanas or raisins. Photo alos being posted
