VEGEMITE CHEESE SCROLLS

I remember taking my boys for after school treats at the local bakery and a cheesy vegemite scroll was always a hit. I think the humongous size had something to do with it but let’s be honest, cheese and vegemite go together like peas and carrots…meant to be.

Lately I’ve been whipping up a Sunday batch of these scrolls, they don’t last long but they are tasty, honest and home cooked goodness so I don’t care. Oh, and they only take a few minutes to make and are easy peasy. You might like to whip up a batch?

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED..

• 3 cups Self Raising flour (sifted)
• 1 pinch salt and pepper
• 50g softened butter
• 375 ml milk
• 1 -2 tablespoon vegemite
• 200g grated tasty cheese

LET’S MAKE THESE…

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees and flour a baking tray or use baking paper. No butter needed just a light dusting of flour on your favourite baking tray or a sheet of baking paper. Do you re use baking paper? I sure do, if I’m making a few batches of biscuits I use the piece a few times over.

This couldn’t be simpler, add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and bring mixture together. I was always taught to use a dinner knife to mix scone dough so I still do it to this day.

Turn out onto a floured bench and knead lightly…like you would a scone dough.

Now grab a rolling pin and flatten into a rectangle shape.

Spread the dough with vegemite (to taste) and sprinkle with grated cheese.

Start a tight roll and roll up lengthways so you have a long log shape.

Using a sharp knife cut roughly 3-5 cm pieces and place close together on a tray. Make sure they are cut side up.

Sprinkle with a little extra cheese and bake in the oven 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes until golden.

Super cheap, super easy and super popular…oh and tasty 🙂

Have you made vegemite cheesy scrolls before?
