Equipment

  • Large biscuit tray or cookie sheet
  • Rolling pin (optional)
  • Large mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 1 packet Bob's Red Mill Pizza Crust Mix (454 g packet)
  • ½ cup tapioca flour (approximately)
  • 400 g cooked and masked butternut pumpkin
  • 100 g ricotta cheese
  • Pinch salt
  • ½ tsp dried oregano leaves
  • 1 cup grated tasty cheese

Instructions
 

  • Prepare pizza dough according to packet directions
  • Preheat oven to 180° Celsius (conventional oven) or 160° Celsius (fan-forced oven)
  • Grease and line a large biscuit tray or cookie sheet
  • Lay a sheet of baking paper of approximately 50 cm long on a clean and dry bench surface. Generously dust the sheet with about half of the tapioca flour
  • Put dough on top of paper and generously dust the dough with the rest of the tapioca flour
  • Using your fingertips or the palm of your hand, gently press down on the dough to flatten. If it sticks to your hand, dust with a little more flour
  • Shape the dough into a rectangular shape of about 40 cm wide, 30 cm long and 1.5 cm thick
  • Use a rolling-pin if you like (dust it with tapioca flour), but the dough should be easy enough to shape with your hands
  • In a mixing bowl, combine pumpkin, ricotta cheese, salt and oregano. Spread evenly over pizza dough
  • Using the baking paper to help you, roll the dough into a long scroll by starting with the long edge closest to you and gently rolling away from you. Dust off any excess tapioca flour as you go
  • Once you have finished rolling, gently press the scroll into the long edge of the dough to seal
  • Using the baking paper to help you, put the scroll onto a tray and freeze for about 30 mins or until firm
  • Remove from freezer and cut scroll into 3 centimetre slices. Wipe knife blade clean after each cut
  • Put cut scrolls onto biscuit tray, cut side down. Pack them close together so they are touching
  • Put a small handful of grated cheese on top of each scroll
  • Bake for 40 minutes

Notes

Freeze excess scrolls and defrost at room temperature as required
