Instructions
- Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 1/4 tsp instant dry yeast, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1 tsp salt.
- Step 2: Add 1 cup warm milk and 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Step 3: Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Step 4: Roll the dough into a 12x15-inch rectangle. Spread 3 tbsp Vegemite evenly over the dough, then sprinkle 1 cup grated cheddar cheese and 1 tsp dried mixed herbs on top.
- Step 5: Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Cut into 12 equal scrolls and place them cut-side up on a parchment-lined baking tray.
- Step 6: Cover loosely and let rise for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Step 7: Brush the scrolls with 1 beaten egg and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Step 8: Cool slightly before serving warm.
