Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups (375ml) warm water
  • 7g (2 tsp/1 sachet) dried yeast
  • 1 tsp caster sugar
  • 3 cups (450g) plain flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 1 cup (280g) tomato pizza sauce
  • 1 cup (100g) shredded pizza cheese
  • 50g brown mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 100g sliced pepperoni

Method

STEP 1

Combine water, yeast and sugar in a jug. Set aside for 5 mins or until frothy.

STEP 2

Combine the flour and salt in a bowl. Make a well in the centre. Add the yeast mixture and oil and use a round-bladed knife to stir until a soft, sticky dough forms. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 10 mins or until smooth and elastic. Place in a lightly greased bowl. Cover loosely with a damp tea towel. Place in a warm, draught-free place for 1 hour or until the dough doubles in size.

STEP 3

Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease a 22cm square cake pan and line the base and sides with baking paper.

STEP 4

Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Roll out dough to a 30cm x 40cm rectangle. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a 2cm border at 1 long end. Sprinkle with the cheese. Top with mushroom and pepperoni. Starting from the other long end, roll dough over the filling to enclose. Use a serrated knife to cut evenly into 9 scrolls. Arrange the scrolls, cut-side up, in the prepared pan.

STEP 5

Bake for 10 mins. Reduce oven to 180°C. Bake for a further 20 mins or until scrolls sound hollow when tapped on the top. Set aside to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
