PUMPKIN DAMPER

From my Australian friend Melenie who got it from "Heart Foundation: Deliciously Healthy Cookbook" 2001. Damper is like a heavy bread, best eaten warm. .Traditionally damper is just plain but this one is quite nice. Cut into moderately thick slices and serve while still warm. Top with butter, golden syrup, or your favourite jam.
