Ingredients with Measurements:
- 3 cups self-raising flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 80g butter, chopped
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup AussieMite spread
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
Special equipment needed:
- Baking tray
- Baking paper
- Rolling pin
Step-by-step instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour and salt.
3. Add the chopped butter and use your fingertips to rub it into the flour mixture until it resembles breadcrumbs.
4. Make a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the milk. Use a butter knife to mix until a dough forms.
5. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
6. Roll the dough out into a rectangle shape, approximately 30cm x 40cm.
7. Spread the AussieMite evenly over the dough, leaving a 1cm border around the edges.
8. Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the top of the AussieMite spread.
9. Starting from the long edge closest to you, roll the dough up tightly to form a log.
10. Cut the log into 12 even slices and place them onto the prepared baking tray.
11. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
12. Serve warm.
