Three Cheese, Vegemite and Jalapeño Scrolls

Back

These Three Cheese, Vegemite and Jalapeño Scrolls are the ultimate Aussie bake — pillowy, golden, and packed with bold savoury flavour. Baked to perfection in a Solidteknics baking pan or skillet, they make a fantastic snack, lunch, or crowd-pleasing party food.

Ingredients

For the dough

  • 500g bakers' flour
  • 310ml lukewarm water
  • 7g (1 sachet) dry yeast
  • 6g sugar
  • 6g salt
  • 20g canola or olive oil

For the filling

  • 2–3 tbsp Vegemite
  • 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup grated mozzarella
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan
  • 2–3 jalapeños (pickled or fresh), thinly sliced
  • Extra cheese for topping

Method

  1. Combine warm water, yeast and sugar in a large bowl. Whisk and let sit for 10–15 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add flour, salt and oil. Mix then knead for 8–10 minutes by hand (or 7–9 minutes with a dough hook) until smooth and elastic. The dough should pass the window pane test.
  3. Place in an oiled bowl, cover and prove in a warm place for 1–2 hours until doubled in size.
  4. Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle approximately 40x30cm.
  5. Spread Vegemite evenly over the surface (use more or less to taste). Scatter the three cheeses generously over the top, then distribute the jalapeño slices evenly.
  6. Roll the dough tightly from the long edge into a log. Use a sharp knife or dental floss to cut into 12 equal rounds.
  7. Place rounds cut-side up in a greased or lined Solidteknics baking pan or skillet, leaving a little space between each. Cover and prove for 30–45 minutes until puffed.
  8. Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Top scrolls with extra cheese and bake for 18–22 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Allow to cool briefly in the pan, then pull apart and serve warm.

Tip: For extra heat, add a pinch of chilli flakes to the filling. Leftover scrolls reheat beautifully in the oven at 160°C for 8 minutes.
