Damper is a simple but tasty scone-like bread made from flour and water. It is usually cooked over an open campfire, and served with plenty of butter, and honey or golden syrup if one wishes.

Damper became popular among people such as swagmen, stockmen and the gold diggers, as is was cheap and quick to make.
