    Cheese and Vegemite Scrolls

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 1/2 cups Self Raising Flour
    • 1/2 cup Whole meal Flour
    • 80 grams Butter
    • 2/3 cups Milk
    • 1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese grated
    • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese grated
    • 1 tbsp Vegemite or Marmite heaped
    • 1 tbsp Milk

    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.

    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!

      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.
