Juniper Berry damper

Juniper Berry damper with salt crust From the Morning show on 7 *NB* i probably wouldn't ad the berries as they would be too hard to get where i live but it sounds like a nice recipe, as do the scones. INGREDIENTS 3 cups self-raising flour pinch of salt 2 tbsp crushed dried juniper berries 60g chopped firm butter ½ cup milk ½ cup water 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 1 tbsp sea salt flakes To serve – butter to taste METHOD Juniper berry damper with salt crust Serves 4, Preheat oven to 210°C. Sift 3 cups self-raising flour into a bowl and add a pinch of salt and 2 tbsp crushed dried juniper berries. Use fingertips to rub 60g chopped firm butter into mixture until combined. Make a well in the centre of dry mixture, add ½ cup milk and ½ cup water and stir until a sticky dough forms. Knead on a floured surface until almost smooth. Roll into a football shape and place onto a greased oven tray. Cut a slit lengthways in the top of dough. Drizzle 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil over dough and sprinkle with 1 tbsp sea salt flakes. Bake for 30-35 minutes until loaf is golden and sounds hollow when tapped. Serve with butter while still warm. Cinnamon Scones: Simply replace Juniper Berries with Cinnamon and a little sugar instead of the salt
