I've been reading everywhere people raving about yoghurt dough. But I haven't been inspired until now. You see Master 2 won't eat a sandwich. He will not touch one. If I'm lucky he will eat each of the sandwich elements separately ie the cheese, the bread and the ham as individual pieces. But more often than not it is just left by the wayside. Or worse chucked on the floor.
He went to preschool yesterday with fried rice and cooked pasta and ate the whole lot. But I can't be making fried rice on mornings when we've got swimming, or other activities, it's too hard.
So I decided to try yoghurt dough scrolls. The premise sounded good, they were made with just 2 ingredients. So I made some yoghurt and got experimenting.
Enriched, even better yoghurt dough scrolls
Ingredients
3/4 cup wholemeal self raising flour
3/4 cup white self raising flour
1 cup yoghurt
1/8 cup chia seeds
a tablespoon of water
flour for dusting
Today's filling: 2 rashers finely sliced bacon 1 cup grated cheddar
Method
Preheat your oven to 200 degrees and line a baking tray.
Combine the bread ingredients together in a large bowl.
Either manually need for 10 minutes or do it in a mixer with a dough hook.
The resulting dough will be sticky but not unmanageable.
Dust a large flat surface with flour.
Roll the dough until you have a large rectangle, approx 1.5 cms thick.
Starting on one side, sprinkle with cheese and bacon, covering the whole dough but reserving a few tablespoons for the top.
Roll the dough tightly until you reach the other side.
Cut into rounds 5 cms tall.
Place the rounds on the prepared baking tray and bake for 15 minutes or until golden.
Remove from the oven and cool on the tray for 5 minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
Makes 9-10.
Freeze for lunchboxes!
