Makes: 6
FOR THE TRUFFLE BUTTER
125g unsalted butter
1g finely grated black truffle, such as Urbani Black Summer Truffles In A Truffle Juice (selected stores), plus extra to serve
½ tsp sea salt flakes
FOR THE DAMPER
300g plain flour, sieved
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp sea salt flakes
50g cold butter
250ml buttermilk
1. For the truffle butter, whip the butter in the bowl of a stand mixer on a medium speed for 4 minutes. Add the truffle and salt, and mix for a further 30 seconds, or until just combined. Transfer into 6 small dishes or 1 large serving dish. Chill until required (this can be made up to 24 hours ahead).
2. For the damper, preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6. Place the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Grate the cold butter into the dry mix and rub with your fingertips until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Make a well in the centre. Pour the buttermilk into the well and mix with a butter knife to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a clean kitchen surface and knead until smooth.
3. Lightly grease an 18cm cake tin and line with baking parchment. Make 6 small balls of the dough and place inside the tin working from the centre out. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden.
4. Serve the warm dampers with the truffle butter, topped with extra grated truffle.
