How To Cook Camp Oven DAMPER - ( SIMPLE TIPS )
Вставка

- I show you how to cook camp oven DAMPER the traditional way.
This is the same damper recipe that i have used for over 45 years.
When i first learnt to cook damper, it was damper wrapped around a green stick and cooked on the campfire.
I first learnt how to cook a damper in a fire when I started camping in Cubs as a young fella.
The damper recipe in this video is the same one from those days as a young Cub.
Today I still make the same damper recipe in the camp oven, but I add a few sultana's for a fruit loaf.
Add some jam and cream, and it tastes amazing.
Cooking a camp oven damper on the coals of the camp fire is a great way of starting any morning while out camping.
I would be very interested to know how you cook damper in the camp oven when you're out camping, and what ingredients you put inside your damper mix.

Gday mate,
That’s great some of my videos are giving you ideas of places to go.
The High Country is a fantastic place to explore.
Thanks for your reply and feedback mate.
Cheers Tim.
Just bought my first camp oven and going away in our caravan so can’t wait to use it to make this damper.
Gday mate,
That’s great you now have a camp oven.
The damper is so nice mate, plenty of jam and cream. Lol.
I also have another video about tips for people using a camp oven for the first time.
Thanks a lot for your feedback
Cheers Tim
The beaten up Billy is such a good touch. I still have my dads from when I was a toddler
G'day Ryan,
Thanks mate, it still boils water a treat. No need to replace it.
Thanks for your reply.
Cheers Tim
Fab base recipe Tim, Thanks. I put together some savory variations. I used wholemeal flour. 1. Add a cup of grated tasty cheese, a teaspoon of dry mustard and a pinch of mixed herbs. Yum. Savory version 2 Add the cheese as in the above recipe, then press out into an oval, In the centre of the oval add some crumbled feta cheese, mixed with a cup of super well drained silverbeet, or spinach and plenty of salt and pepper. Roll up the damper and press gently back to form a loaf. You could also add things like cooked chicken, cooked mince lamb, chopped ham, or sun dried tomatoes instead of the feta and sliverbeet mix. Only limited by your imagination!
Gday Fiona,
Your damper mix sounds really nice.
That’s one of the great things with making damper, you can add what ever you want.
They all taste great.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
I love this simple recipe, nicely done Tim 👍
Gday Geoff
Thanks mate.
It’s very simple to make alright, and tastes amazing when covered in jam and cream. Lol.
Cheers Tim
Cool easy recipe for camping with the wee ones 👍🏼
Yeah mate.
Your kids will love eating a fresh damper.
Add plenty of jam and cream when it’s cooked. lol
Cheers Tim
@@timbates4wdadventures they can have garlic butter or nothing 🤣
@@summittaedae2323 haha lol.
Cheers Tim
Grest stuff Tim, that's a bush staple!
Gday mate,
Thanks for your reply.
Cheers Tim.
Damper with jam and cream, that's pretty flash tucker. We only ever managed golden syrup back in the old days. Great vid mate, cheers. 👍
G'day Greg,
Yeah I've pretty much used jam and cream since my early days in Cubs. :-)
It's a wicked combination.
Cheers Batesy.
The old cockys joy (golden syrup), on a damper was a swagy’s delight if he was ever lucky enough to get some, that was pretty flash Tucker…
I must do this more often. Cheers, mate.
Gday mate
Damper in the camp oven makes a really nice meal.
Give it a go some day mate.
Pretty easy to make.
Cheers Tim
Your videos are the best Tim!
G'day Max,
Thanks mate, I greatly appreciate your reply.
Cheers Tim.
I so want to eat that , went camping last weekend (well sort of) for the fist time in 25 years and loved it this damper will be on my next trip , I will send this link to son in law so he can make it 👍🏻and I can supervise
G'day Richard,
Thats great you are getting back into camping mate.
I hope the damper goes well when you make one on the campfire.
Cant beat a good damper mate with all the toppings. Lol
Thanks mate for your feedback.
Cheers Tim.
Interesting and seems tasty. I've never heard of them before now. I'll definitely try making them.
G'day Mike,
Damper is really easy to make.
Put what ever extras you like in it, sure makes a very tasty meal.
Cheers Tim
Great...we will make it in one of our next 4x4 adventures! Thx Tim for the simple recept!
G'day mate,
Let me know how you go, I would be keen to see how it goes and what you think of it.
Cheers Tim.
Great job Tim yum I love damper I love your channel thanks 😃
G'day Donna,
Damper is so nice out of the camp oven.
Thanks for your reply and feedback.
Cheers Tim.
Loved it absolutely
Thanks mate.
I appreciate your feedback.
Cheers Tim.
Looks great, Bates! I may try this one this weekend.
Yeah mate.
It’s simple to make.
Add what ever extras you like.
Thanks mate for your reply.
Cheers Tim
That's made me hungry... You've given me inspiration for breaky this weekend when I head out to Mafra. I always make sure to use a trivet in the oven so the damper base doesn't burn which I saw you did too and also good to try and make the damper small enough to not touch the sides of the oven again for the same reason.
G'day Stephen,
Sounds great mate, I'll be keen to hear how you go at Maffra this weekend.
Yeah mate, the trivet is the go. I use one with everything I cook in the camp oven.
Cheers Batesy.
This looks amazing! Can’t wait to try
G'day Michelle,
It is very easy to make and tastes amazing with jam and cream.
I hope your damper turns out well.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
We made it last week! Tasted so good! We’re new to camping and outdoor cooking and found your channel to be fantastic! Thank you so much.
@@michellewalton5453 Top stuff.
Glad your damper worked out well.
Campfire cooking is so nice compared to cooking that same meal ot home in the oven.
Have fun getting started to camping, some good times ahead.
Good job once again tim. Keep it up mate. I subscribe ages ago to keep updated with your latest videos

G'day mate,
That sounds pretty good mate.
Cant beat a good damper on the camp fire.
Cheers Tim.

Thank you.
It's a really nice cook up.
Cheers Tim
looks bloody good mate, i can almost taste it. hahaha
Gday Bruce,
Yeah mate, that simple damper mix is really nice.
Tastes a treat.
Thanks mate for your feedback.
Cheers Tim.
I normally make the dough up the night before and keep it in a warm place overnight then in the morning it’s had time to relax and it’s expanded slightly like bread then I cook it like you did but my damper ends up fluffy and not so heavy in the stomach
G'day mate,
Sounds like an interesting way you make your damper.
Might be worth a try that way.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Up Cape York for 2 months I cooked the damper directly in the coals,unforgettable times 🏃♂️🧗♀️🐗🦘🦎🕷🦂🦟🦟🦟
Great one 👍🏼
I put a block of chocolate in the middle and another chocolate bar is awesome once it melts through the centre
Great with a coffee
G'day mate,
Must give that one a go.
That sounds pretty damn good.
Cheers Tim.
Well done again Tim,
True ausy, I do pretty well much the same as you have done and it always comes out good, depends on how much neck oil I have,
Cheers mate 🍻👍🇦🇺
G'day Amos,
Yeah to much neck oil as you say, could have a bit of an impact on how your damper turns out :-)
Thanks for your reply mate.
Cheers Tim.
Delish mate.
Very tasty cook up mate.
Cheers Tim.
Chopped glazed gingers and for the liquid use ginger ale. Yum
+justin Dawson
Gday Justin,
Those few extra ingredients sound pretty good.
Might try them out.
Thanks for your reply mate.
Cheers Tim.
Here in the southern US. Thats basically how we make what we call biscuits. No not tea biscuits and such lol we call those cookies. Only real difference is the addition of baking powder. And usually use buttermilk. In the Appalachian mountains where I'm originally from, we would call what you made there "biscuit pone" usually done in a well seasoned iron skillet reserved for biscuit pone and cornbread. Otherwise biscuits are done on a pan and divided into fist sized portions. Looks good,always great to learn how others do things.
G'day mate,
Thanks heaps for your reply.
It's always interesting to hear others stories on how they do things.
Even more so, when your story on how you make your mix is coming from the US.
Thanks heaps for your reply.,
Very interesting.
Cheers. Tim.
Mate you're making me hungry! That looks so good. I'd love a savoury damper with cheese and bacon. I'm definitely a savoury man. Thanks for sharing your recipe mate!
That would be nice in a damper mate.
Bit of melted cheese would go alright.
Good thing about a damper, you can put what ever you want in them.
Cheers Tim.
@@timbates4wdadventures that's it mate!
@@timbates4wdadventures i was looking at that Jumbuck camper trailer today. Looks good. How do you rate it mate?
Many of many tallents Tim.
Thanks mate.
Can’t beat a good simple damper.
Cheers Tim
@@timbates4wdadventures I haven't done one but will give it a crack next time out using your instructions.
@@stevegoodwin5841 Good luck mate. Lol
Hi mate I'm about to go on my first solo camp , been watching quite a few of your camping video's . Thanks for all your tips, I'll let you know how I go
G'day Michael,
Sounds great mate. I hope your first solo camp trip goes swell.
Where are you thinking of going?
Thanks mate for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Bacon and cheese then slice into slices and bit butter nice entree
Gday David,
Yeah mate, that does sound really nice.
Couple of tasty additions.
Thanks mate for your feedback.
Cheers Tim.
I make a dumper with Olives bacon salami sun-dried tomatoes 👍👍
G'day Nicko,
Wicked mix mate in your damper, that would go down a treat.
Thanks for your reply mate.
Cheers Batesy.
You never made this when we were away...I want my money back.👍Will have to give it a try.
G'day Andy,
You must have not read the fine print about that trip. Lol
Next time mate.
Cheers Batesy.
I do it just like this mate, how you taught me. The only difference is a couple of times I left the sultanas out & sprinkled cheese over the top before cooking. Not too shabby
G'day Steve,
Thats ace mate.
I must try the cheese on the top some day.
A few people talk about that mix.
Sounds not to shabby at all.
Cheers Tim.
Simple but what a ripper! I'll have to give it a go I reckon.
G'day mate,
The damper i make in this video is pretty simple, but tastes amazing with jam and cream.
I hope yours goes well when you mare it.
Cheers Tim.
Wow you look so much like the guy from wolf creek from a distance lol thanks for the vid
Ahh righto.
Glad you enjoyed the video.
Cheers Tim
Awesome cooking Tim. Masterchef?
Thanks mate. Damper in the camp oven is the best.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Nice i some times like putting some Italian herbs and cheese in the mix 😁😁
G'day Maria,
Yes they would both be a nice addition to a damper.
Thanks for your reply.
Cheers Tim.
Batesy, great video and damper mate 👍 Next time you try it again, add beer in replacement of the water, it's a bewdy 👍🍻
G'day mate,
Ahh righto, i must give that a go.
Thanks a lot mate for your reply.
Cheers Tim.
I think I just saw you put some rasins in your biscuit dough. That’s a bold culinary statement my friend! Fearless Aussie cooking. Looks darn good though.
Yeah mate, i do like to add sultanas into my damper mix.
They are a nice addition.
Thanks mate for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
onya cobba, thats a ripper damper - thank you !
Ben Bryce
Gday Ben,
Thanks mate.
It sure tastes great that damper mix.
Thanks for your reply.
Cheers Tim.
@@timbates4wdadventures great channel Tim, subscribed !
@@benbryce2788 Thanks heaps mate. I greatly appreciate it.
Cheers Tim.
S’mores Damper mate, bit of a sweet tooth version with dark choc and marshmallows.
Can’t go past a good cheese bacon and tomato savory one too
G'day mate,
Now the dark chocolate going in the damper sounds great.
I absolutly love dark chocolate. Lol
Might try both of those options.
Cheers Tim.
Gday mate just found your channel and loving it, try a damper with egg cheese and bacon absolutely sensational.....cheers mate
Gday Alan,
With the egg, do you mix that into the flour then add the cheese and bacon?
Sounds amazing mate.
Thanks for checking out my channel. I greatly appreciate your feedback.
Cheers Tim.
@@timbates4wdadventures Two eggs in the mix then I add one into a well in the top of the mix then cover it with cheese and fold the mix over the egg cheese mix then into the oven for 30ish min, I put a handful of shredded cheese and bacon in the mix as well
@@alanjohnston243
Yeah wicked mate.
Sounds amazing.
Thanks for that, I might give that one a go.
Cheers Tim.
Big cup. Wow
Steve Fairley
How do you mean mate.
Cheers Tim
I've made one tonight with your recipe.... Thank you.
But used a proper measure cup and looks half the size of yours. Not complaining
Steve Fairley
Top stuff mate.
That’s great your damper worked out well.
Can’t beat a good damper.
Cheers Tim.
Exactly how I make damper! We must’ve been in the same troop.
G'day mate,
Yeah that way of making damper works a treat.
Where did you go?
Cheers Tim.
5th Nunawading Scouts. Cubs, Scouts, Venturers and Rovers. Specialising in caving/rock climbing.
@@The_Stoic_PhilosopherSH yeah cool mate.
I went through with 2nd Frankston. Scouting and Venture years. Hardly spent a weekend home.
Great years.
You can even go a bit flasher and make "scones" its just 3 parts SR Flour, 1 part cream and 1 part lemonade. Each cup of flour makes about half a dozen, you could probably even use beer.
G'day mate,
Yes, I had thought about making scones with the same damper mix.
In stead of one large damper, I thought of rolling 3 or 4 balls up and cooking those the same way.
Thanks for your feed back.
Cheers Tim.
Been putting honey and cream in mine since I was a scout
Good ol scouting days.
Honey and ice cream sounds really good mate.
Might have to give that a go some day.
Cheers Tim.
Whats next Batesy...MasterChef...My Kitchen Rules !! Great to see you are a Jam First Cream second man!! Well done !!
G'day Craig,
Watch this space mate on cooking videos. Lol
Batesy style cooking videos.
Yeah mate, for sure, jam always first and cream on top.
Too hard to spread the jam if the cream goes on first.
Thanks again mate.
Cheers Batesy.
@@timbates4wdadventures Like you we made damper in Cubs and then Scouts...didn't look anywhere near as good as yours!! Well done mate!!
@@craigwillis3372 They were great years mate. Ripper way to get started in life.
Served my apprenticeship ( If you like ) in the High Country during those years.
Thanks again mate, greatly appreciate it.
Cheers Batesy.
i like your stove or grill or whatever you call it . Looks like it was made by a blacksmith.
It was mate.
Cheers Tim.
Hi Tim, credit to you mate, I have a young family and your videos are great,

Pietro Imperatori
Thanks a lot mate.

Cheers Tim.
Do you use the trivet for a damper Tim?
Gday James,
I do mate.
Helps to not burn the bottom of the damper.
Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers Tim
Go the Gippsland Jersey Milk!! ✅✅
G'day Jo,
I now live in East Gippsland and i buy the Gippsland Jersey milk all the time.
Cheers Tim.

Cheers Tim.
Can you bring that around here?
G'day Hugh,
Next one I make up, I'll bring it around. :-)
Was pretty good mate.
Cheers Batesy.
Did you have the trivet in the bottom
Gday Kerri,
Yes, I use my trivet pretty much all the time.
Thanks for your reply.
Cheers Tim

Cheers Tim
You forgot the salt....!!
Gday Paul,
I’ve not added salt before.
Might try it on another damper.
Cheers Tim.
Ya squashed all the air out of it...
Arrggghhhh. Tim, you broke the cardinal rule of dampa ! dont use a knife to cut it, you have to break the bread by hand 1st.
G'day mate,
Not heard that one about not using a knife to cut it.
Still taste's just as good either way.
Thanks for your reply mate.
Cheers Tim.
