The best afternoon snack!
Cheese and vegemite scrolls
Notes
- If you don’t have wholemeal flour then use all white, just pour the milk in gradually as you might not need it all.
- With any dough, try and be as gentle as possible and kneed it only as much as it needs to prevent the dough being tough.
- These freeze really well and will hold up in a lunch box rain, hail, and shine.
- My three year-old loves to help spread and sprinkle these.
- These are great at stopping afternoon tummy rumbles!

Equipment
- 1 medium bowl
- 1 baking tray
- 1 wire rack
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200°C.
- In a medium bowl, combine both flours and butter.
- Using your fingertips, rub the butter through the flours until you have a breadcrumb consistency, then add ¾ of the cheese combination and milk and work into a dough ball with your hands.
- When these ingredients are combined, lightly flour your kitchen bench and gently push the dough out into a rectangle, approx 1 cm in depth.
- Spread Vegemite evenly over the top of the dough and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
- Roll the dough into a long rope shape, rolling it away from you. When you have a rope of dough cut it into eight equal rounds and place them on a lined baking tray.
- Brush with milk.
- Bake for 20 minutes then remove from oven and cook on wire rack.

Recipe says 2/4 cup of cheese is that correct? So 1/2 or was there a typo and it should be 3/4
Apologies for the confusion. I have checked the recipe and it should be half a cup. We hope you enjoy the recipe.
