Idea 3: Marmite Wagon Wheels

Sent in by: Debbi Papamichael

Ingredients

• 1 roll Pastry (White or Brown Bread Pastry)
• Grated Cheese
• Salami or bacon
• Marmite

Instructions

1. Roll out the pastry as is and spread a thin layer of Marmite on it.
2. Place the bacon or salami and the grated cheese in two layers on the rolled out pastry.
3. Roll up the pastry again and put it in the fridge for about 2 hours.
4. Preheat oven to 180°C and cut the chilled, rolled up pastry into “wheels” that are each 2cm thick.
5. Bake for about 10-12 minutes.

You do not have to cook all the wagon wheels at once. You can freeze them and bake them the night before as needed. They make a delicious lunchbox treat.
