- Getting old and everything that goes with it. All the repeats on TV. The drongos who ring me up to sell me things. Religious havens for pedophiles and war-mongers.
I just made a damper which is flour water and salt baked in Australia traditionally in bush camps using camp ovens and often eaten with Cocky's Joy aka Golden Syrup.
I have an unopened 25lb (11 kg) bag of coconut flour so I need to find ways of using it with what I have available which is pretty much wholemeal flour and I am trying to cut back on eggs. So I opted for 1/2 wholewheat flour and half coconut flour. I do not know what the resultant carbs is because coconut sucks up lots of water.
Coconut flour has a distinctive taste so I wanted to get rid of some of that so I added vanilla essence. I cooked it in our BBQ with a pull down oven lid.
It stayed together and tasted good with some butter on it and no hint of vanilla.
250ml wholemeal wheat flour
250ml coconut flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp vanilla
I cooked sausages and veg (mushroom zucchini and jap pumpkin) in the BBQ while the damper was cooking in there too, so I have no idea of time and temperature.
I will test in an another hour to see how I handled it.
