Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups wholemeal self-raising flour or gluten free
  • 1.3 cups Greek yoghurt
Ingredients for Strawberry Jam
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 tablespoon pure maple syrup
  • 1 cup strawberries ends removed & quartered
Ingredients for PB Frosting
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yoghurt
  • 2 tablespoons smooth peanut butter
  • 1 pinch ground cinnamon

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 180ºC and line a baking tray.
  2. Place strawberries and honey in a bowl in the microwave for 2 minutes until soft. Mash the strawberries with a fork until the jam is the desired consistency. Stir in the chia seeds and set aside to cool and thicken.
  3. While the jam is cooling, add the flour and yoghurt to a mixing bowl. Combine with a spoon until mixture comes together. Turn the dough out onto a floured bench and knead for a few minutes (add more flour or yoghurt if too dry or soft).
  4. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a rectangle until 0.5cm thick. Spread the jam over the dough.
  5. Roll the dough from the long side into a long log. Cut into 2.5cm thick pieces and place onto the liked baking tray. Place into the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
  6. Meanwhile, mix all of the frosting ingredients together in a bowl and refrigerate until you are ready to serve the scrolls.
  7. Once the scrolls are cooked, allow to cool before spreading the frosting over the top. Sprinkle with extra cinnamon and serve.
