I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but with back to school not too far away (yep I know!) if you are looking for yummy lunchbox snacks for the kids, these easy Ham and Cheese Scrolls are for you!

Easy Ham and Cheese Scrolls

These Ham and Cheese Scrolls are really easy to make and use the same base dough recipe as my Hawaiian Pizza Scrolls and Vegemite and Cheese Scrolls and my favourite part of this recipe is that you don’t need to use any yeast when making this dough.

Easy Ham and Cheese Scrolls

To give these Ham and Cheese Scrolls a little extra kick, I like to add a couple of tablespoons of seeded mustard, however you could certainly leave this out if you prefer.

As well as making a great lunchbox snack, these easy Ham and Cheese Scrolls are also a great option for your next party and best of all they can be frozen!

    These look great, Lauren! I always thought scrolls had to be made with yeast in the mix (and I kind of avoid making anything with yeast in it like the plague, I’m just way too lazy!), but it turns out that’s not the case! Crazy that the school year will be kicking off again pretty soon. I don’t have any kids of my own, but I’m thinking about back-to-school stuff in any case because I work at a school as my day job! So I like to think of my lunches as school lunches, hehe 🙂

      I’m always scared to make things with yeast too, this is such a great alternative and perfect to take to work too!

    Gah – back to school! I’m well into the labelling and book covering process but haven’t even considered lunch box options. With Miss T in grade 1 and Mr TT starting 3 year old kindy for two days this year I’ll have an extra lunchbox to pack. I usually cheat and buy vegemite or ham and cheese scrolls but you make these sound achievable for even me to make! I’m keen to give them a go – thanks Lauren! xx

    These look great Lauren. I need lots of lunchbox ideas. It’s my daughter’s first year of school this year so I need to get creative:)

    5 stars
    Do you melt the second measure of butter [60g] or just dot it over the pastry?

      Hi Julie, I usually just spread it onto the pastry 🙂
