What are Cheesymite Scrolls?

Cheesymite scrolls are a baked bread treat that's sold at bakeries across Australia.  Essentially it's a soft roll filled with vegemite and cheese and rolled into the shape of a scroll or a snail.

Ingredients

  • Greek Yoghurt
  • Self-Raising Flour - OR use a mix of all purpose / plain flour and baking powder instead.  You'll need 2 teaspoons of baking powder for every cup of flour.
  • Vegemite
  • Shredded Cheddar Cheese 

What can I use in place of Vegemite?

As an Aussie I am passionately against any alternative to Vegemite but I'll accept that they are out there 😛  Feel free to use Vegemite alternatives like Marmite, Mightymite, Ozemite or Promite if that's what you have on hand.

How to make Cheese and Vegemite Scrolls - Step by Step

Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F and line a baking tray with a silicone mat or baking paper.  

Place Greek yoghurt in a mixing bowl and give it a stir. Add in 1 cup of flour and stir to combine. Gradually add in more flour until the dough starts to form into a ball.

Tip the dough onto a well-floured surface and knead with your hands for a minute or two. If the dough is still too sticky, add some more flour and continue to knead. The dough is ready when it is able to hold it’s shape and is not sticking to your hands or the surface.

Roll the dough up tight, then cut into 8 equal pieces.  Spread the pieces out onto a baking tray, keeping a bit of space between each one to allow some room for rising. 

Sprinkle a little cheese on top of each scroll, then place in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the dough is golden and cooked through. Place scrolls on a wire rack to cool.

STORAGE ADVICE

Once cooled completely, store in an airtight container at room temperature for a day, or freeze for up to 3 months.

TOP TIPS

  • Be sure to check out my two ingredient dough guide for all the tips and tricks for getting the dough right!
  • You want to work quickly with this dough – it tends to get stickier the longer it’s at room temperature so once you have the right consistency roll it out, load it up and roll it up.
  • Don’t worry too much about getting a perfect rectangle shape.  I certainly never do.  Just roll it out as much as you can then top it with Vegemite and cheese.
  • If you keep your Vegemite in the fridge, bring it to room temperature before spreading.  This will ensure it spreads easier.
  • Roll it up as tightly as possible and try to cut it into 8 even parts.  This is easier to do if you cut the roll in half first, then half again, and again.

Notes

Flour

  • If you don't have self-raising flour simply use a mixture of plain / all purpose flour and baking powder. The conversion is 1 cup of flour to 2 teaspoons of baking powder. So if you use 1 & 1/2 cups of flour for your dough, you'll need 3 teaspoons of baking powder.

Peanut Butter Eggs Recipe 🥜🥚🍫 : https://www.cookitrealgood.com/peanut-butter-eggs/

OR comment with "Peanut" and I'll DM you the link!

For me, this Peanut Butter Eggs recipe is a holiday staple—not just for Easter. It’s my ultimate comfort treat that shows up during every festive season, including the run-up to Christmas. I hope that’s not weird 😆😁.

They've got that nostalgic chocolate-peanut butter combo everyone loves, but with a homemade twist that makes them even better. Plus, you can dip and drizzle them in any chocolate you like—dark, white, milk—and decorate them to look just like colourful eggs.

Nutella Brownies

Honestly, I first tried making these on a whim. A friend and I were having a lazy weekend baking session, and we had a jar of chocolate hazelnut spread lying around. We decided to see what happened if we added it to our brownie batter.

Ingredients:

100g brown sugar
50g granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
200g Nutella
¼ teaspoon salt
150g all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
100g dark chocolate chips

Still recovering from the nightmare of being force-fed stinky and bitter boiled brussels sprouts as a child?  Never fear - these Crispy Brussels Sprouts with Bacon will turn even the most adamant brussels sprouts hater around.

Brussels sprouts really shine when oven roasted - crisp and caramelised on the outside and tender on the inside.  Not to mention how simple it is - throw everything on a tray in the oven for 25 minutes and voila!

Chicken Florentine

If you're craving a comforting, creamy dish, Chicken Florentine is the answer. Imagine golden-fried chicken smothered in a rich, garlic spinach cream sauce. The sauce is silky smooth, with just the right amount of tang from the Parmesan cheese and a burst of flavor from the fresh baby spinach.

For the chicken:

2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons olive oil

For the sauce:

3 tablespoons butter
1 large shallot, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups fresh baby spinach

Maybe it’s because of the cute color—my kids really love carrots. Especially when they’re roasted with potatoes, the kids go wild for it… well, their dad too, haha. But I’m worried they’ll get bored, so I try to look for different recipe variations where carrots are the main ingredient.

Mexican Chicken Salad Full Recipe 🌯🥗: https://www.cookitrealgood.com/mexican-chicken-salad/

OR comment with "MEXICAN" and I'll DM you the link! 🖐

I love Mexican food, so it's no surprise that one of my favourite salads is Mexican inspired.  This Mexican Chicken Salad is full of good-for-you ingredients and is filling enough to be a complete meal on its own.  The chicken is juicy and bursting with flavour.

It's on the table in 15 minutes.  Yes, you heard right - 15 minutes!  This does require a little multi-tasking, like chopping salad ingredients while waiting for the chicken breast to cook.  But totally doable.

Gigi Hadid Pasta 🫕🍴

Maybe this is the closest I’ll ever get to Gigi Hadid, hahaha. This Gigi Hadid Pasta is actually just a version of the classic Italian-American dish, penne alla vodka. But back during the Covid era, Gigi Hadid shared the recipe on her social media, and ever since then, everyone’s been calling it Gigi Hadid Pasta.

Plus, it's super simple to make with minimum prep time, so even if you're not a pro in the kitchen, you've got this.

Here's what you'll need to make this recipe:

8 ounces or 225 grams of pasta (like penne)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 small shallot, chopped (or red onion)
¼ cup tomato paste
2 tablespoons vodka (optional)
½ cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon chilli flakes (or add red pepper flakes)
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
1 tablespoon butter
A handful of fresh basil for garnish
