Notes & Wine Advice
Serving Suggestions
Serve the scrolls warm for breakfast, add them to a relaxed brunch, or pack them for a picnic. Fresh fruit, sliced tomatoes, scrambled eggs, or a crisp salad provide a lighter contrast to the rich pastry and cheese.Recipe Notes
Vegemite has a concentrated, salty flavor, so spread it thinly and evenly. Leave enough space between the scrolls for the pastry to expand. Browse our air fryer recipes for more advice and convenient cooking ideas.Variations
Add finely chopped spring onions, tomato, cooked mushrooms, or a pinch of chili flakes before rolling the pastry. Try different cheeses from our cheese recipes, including mozzarella for a milder result or mature cheddar for stronger flavor.Wine Advice
A crisp Chardonnay balances the salty Vegemite and rich pastry. A dry sparkling wine is another refreshing option for serving these scrolls at brunch or a party.Nutrition values
