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!

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine both flours and butter.
  3. 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.
  4. When these ingredients are combined, lightly flour your kitchen bench and gently push the dough out into a rectangle, approx 1 cm in depth.
  5. Spread Vegemite evenly over the top of the dough and sprinkle with remaining cheese.

    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.
