Cheesy Vegemite Scrolls

If anyone is looking for something simple, fun and tasty to make with the kids, here is a great recipe (taken from Woolworths Fresh magazine)
Cheese Scrolls
Prep: 20minutes
Cooking 20minutes makes: 12

2 cups of self-raising flour
50g butter, chopped
3/4 cup of milk
1 tbs Vegemite, warmed
1 cup grated Cheese

1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Sift flour into a bowl. Add butter and , using your fingertips, rub into flour until combined. make a well in the centre.
2. Pour milk into the centre. Using a spatula, stir until mixture is almost combined. Use your hands to gather the dough into a ball. Knead gently on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Roll out dough to a 24cm x 36cm rectangle.
3. Spread vegemite over dough then sprinkle with cheese. Roll up dough and cut into 12 slices. Place scrolls onto the baking tray, close together and with the tail ends towards the centre. Bake for 20mins until golden.


To warm Vegemite, measure the amount into a small bowl or cup. Stand in a slightly larger bowl of hot water until spreadable.

My girls enjoyed making this one, and they're pretty tasty too.

Zander will love this, thanks :)

Maggie loves Cheesymites!! I do think though that part of it is the buy of them as the lady at the counter always hands it directly to her. Should make some for her, but with wholemeal flour.

This recipe sounds great, I am sure DS will love these!

I was just googling this recipe- and i found it here- and I posted it!!! I knew i'd made them before at some stage :rolleyes:

Hey, thanks for bumping this up! I'm going to make these for Steph! :D

Yeah thanks I am going to make some this arvo. What a great after school snack too.

ooh yum, I love these - thanks!!

ive been meaning to make these for ages.

im craving cheese and vegemite atm so should do the trick.

Oh, one of my DP's fav bakery foods ... i must try & make some then ;)

... Thanks a million Jaz (WOW, i just realised THIS is one OLD thread, LOL ... June 2007)

if i used frozen pastry sheets, puff or shortcrust?

Awesome for lunchboxes :) I'll be making these for sure!

I made some of these yesterday to take to a Mother's day morning tea at dd2's school. I made them that morning so they were nice and fresh. I'd made them for the kids, but the mums ate them all!!!!

How do you think these would go if I froze them after cooking?

Totally fine :) If you're doing them individually in zip lock backs, otherwise if you want to put them all in the one bag freeze them on a tray and then put them all in a large zip lock bag (this stops them from sticking together in the bag).

I'll definately be making these for DF's lunch - Bakery stuff has been given the arse as it's so expensive so he'll be stoked....

I have these in the oven at the moment - heres hoping they turn out ok!!

How did they turn out?

Hmmmm, not the best. I think I will make them with a proper bread dough next time. Otherwise they turned out fine and the kids like them.

:bump: these are perfect rainy sunday arvo food!....well they're going down a treat here :D

Goodie!

Going to try these out... mmmmm nom nom nom!
