Method

  1. Step 1

    Combine the yeast, sugar, combined flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre. Add the oil and water and stir to combine. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 mins or until smooth. Place in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap. Set aside in a warm, draught-free place for 30 mins or until dough doubles in size.
  2. Step 2

    Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease a 22cm (base measurement) round cake pan and line base with baking paper. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Divide into 3 even portions.
  3. Step 3

    To make ham, cheese and tomato sandwiches, roll out 1 portion of dough to a 20cm x 30cm rectangle. Spread evenly with pizza sauce. Top with ham, cheese and tomato. Starting from 1 long end, roll up to enclose the filling. Cut crossways into 4 even pieces. Place, cut-sides up, in the prepared pan.
  4. Step 4

    To make chicken and pesto sandwiches, place basil, spinach, garlic and parmesan in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Add the oil and process until smooth. Roll out 1 remaining portion of dough to a 20cm x 30cm rectangle. Spread pesto evenly over dough. Top with chicken. Starting from 1 long end, roll up to enclose the filling. Cut crossways into 4 even pieces. Place, cut-sides up, in the prepared pan.
  5. Step 5

    To make rainbow veggie sandwiches, roll out the remaining portion of dough to a 20cm x 30cm rectangle. Spread evenly with pizza sauce. Top with fetta, carrot, zucchini and beetroot. Starting from 1 long end, roll up to enclose the filling. Cut crossways into 4 even pieces. Place, cut-sides up, in the prepared pan.
  6. Step 6

    Set aside for 15 mins to rise. Bake for 10 mins. Reduce oven to 180°C and bake for 20-25 mins or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped on the top. Set aside in the pan for 5 mins to cool slightly before turning onto a wire rack to cool completely. Pull apart to serve. (To freeze, wrap individually in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge.)
