Australian bread often refers to varieties like damper, a traditional soda bread historically made by Australian settlers and Indigenous peoples. Damper typically consists of basic ingredients such as flour, salt, and water, sometimes with baking soda or milk, and is cooked over a campfire or baked in an oven. Its simplicity made it a staple in rural areas where access to complex ingredients was limited. Modern versions may include butter, sugar, or seasonings, and various artisan loaves popular in Australian cuisine incorporate whole grains, seeds, or sourdough for enhanced taste and nutritional value. Whole grain options are high in fiber, supporting digestion and heart health, while traditional damper tends to be lower in nutrients due to refined flour and minimal added ingredients. Though a source of quick energy, it is best enjoyed alongside nutrient-dense foods for a balanced diet.
