This post is updated! It needed a makeover. My kids have grown a bit since I did these, but they are still a favourite! These apple pie yoghurt dough scrolls are winners! I originally published this on May 6, 2015.
Master 2 is obsessed with yoghurt dough scrolls. They are in his lunch box, what he has for lunch at home. Basically his go-to food. I decided last night to experiment with some sweet ones as a dessert and these Apple pie yoghurt dough scrolls were born.
They are sweet and hit the dessert spot well, so they really are a sometimes food. Unlike the scrolls I make for lunches they also only contain white self raising flour as being a dessert they don’t need to be as dense. I’ve used pink lady apples in these as they are what we had, but they would be equally as delicious with any other type of apple.
I had the pleasure of making these with the son of a good friend of mine. He was quite surprised that I was putting yoghurt and flour together and making a dough. He was also slightly worried about the whole concept as he doesn’t like yoghurt. But he did get his hands all floury measuring the flour which he thought was fun.
Now, if you’re on the anti sugar bandwagon, you can cut it back. I did use unrefined raw sugar, and to be perfectly honest as a treat or dessert that is eaten every now and then, I think it’s fine. But feel free to adjust to suit your family!
Master 2 and Miss 4 loved these, I felt they would have been nice with the addition of some custard- but there certainly wasn’t time for making any last night.

Apple pie yoghurt dough scrolls
Low in sugar and easy to make these apple pie yoghurt dough scrolls are a winner. Perfect for the lunchbox, they freeze well and are super portable. A sweet take on yoghurt dough!
Ingredients
- 1 cup greek yoghurt
- 2 cups self raising flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 apples, peeled and grated
- 2 tsps cinnamon
- 1 tablespoons raw sugar, I used coconut sugar in the video
- 2 tbsps butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees
- Combine the yoghurt and flour with the cinnamon and vanilla.
- Mix (either in a mixer with a dough hook or by hand) until you have a well combined dough.
- Roll out the dough to make a large rectangle on a floured surface.
- Spread with the melted butter.
- Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the top.
- Do the same with the cinnamon and the apple.
- Roll up to make a large sausage and cut into two cm rounds.
- Lay the rounds on a lined oven tray and bake for 15 minutes at 180 degrees.
- Makes 16 scrolls.
Notes
These are freezer friendly, just grab and go for the lunchbox!

Molly Upthegrove says
These look like something my toddler might actually eat! What thickness should the dough be rolled out to? Also, should these be cooked at 180 degrees centigrade or fahrenheit? Thanks for sharing!
kidgredients says
Hi Molly, about 2cm thick and the 180 degrees is centigrade.
Have fun!
Alysha says
This looks like a great easy recipe.
Would natural yoghurt work too? Or only Greek? I have a tub of natural yogurt and I don’t think we will use it befor it goes off
kidgredients says
Yes natural would work fine!
Bianca says
These turned out amazing! Thankyou! They were even soft the next day!

Helen at Casa Costello says
Ooh these are a fantastic idea for picnics and packed lunches. I’ve never made yogurt dough so will give it a go. Thanks so much for joining in with #Bakeoftheweek x
kidgredients says
Thanks Helen, yoghurt dough is one of our favourites at the moment, both sweet and savoury. Thanks for having me at the link up! So many awesome ideas…
Sneaky Veg says
I like the sound of these and will check out your savoury scrolls recipe too – feel like I’m in a bit of a lunchbox rut at the moment. Bagels every day! #bakeoftheweek
kidgredients says
Bagels everyday sounds good! LOL. I don’t think master 2 would eat a bagel…must try! 😉
Sneaky Veg says
I’m yet to find a bread product my kids don’t like!
kidgredients says
Me too- except Master 2 likes bread…but doesn’t do sandwiches.
The Free From Fairy says
Corrr! Yes please! These look magnificent! Am going to have a go at making them gluten and dairy free for my family. Pinning now!
kidgredients says
Good luck! I’ve tried scrolls in many ways, and had lots of flops. Make sure you come back and share your success as I’d love to see it!
Anne @ Domesblissity says
These look and sound so, so good. Thank you so much for linking up to Thriving on Thursdays. This recipe is just perfect when I have that 1 cup of yoghurt leftover. I’m featuring this one at tomorrow’s party. Hope to see you again!
Anne @ Domesblissity xx
kidgredients says
Yay! Thanks Anne! I’ll most definitely be back. 😉
Lucy@TwoTinyCrafters says
These look soooo good. My two girls love yoghurt to so I will be making some of these soon.
kidgredients says
Enjoy! Although you don’t really taste the yoghurt. 🙂
Jess says
Yum, I still haven’t tried the flour and greek yoghurt combo, but I love greek yoghurt so why not!
kidgredients says
It’s so easy compared to any traditional dough that it’s worth trying!
Christine says
Oh that looks DELICIOUS!! Yummmm
kidgredients says
Thanks Christine, they are! Give them a go and report back!
kidgredients says
Give them a go!
Sammie @ The Annoyed Thyroid says
We’re big fans of yoghurt dough in this house and these look delicious! Apples and cinnamon are such a cracking combination!
kidgredients says
I know I’m singing my own praises but….these seriously rocked. Best combination for sweet I’ve done so far…
my2morrows says
Yum! These look Delish. I wouldn’t have thought to mix yogurt with flour either but they look great and i love anything with cinnamon… may have to give them a try. Thanks for sharing and linking up to The Ultimate Rabbit Hole! X
kidgredients says
They are so quick to make it’s worth giving them a go! The ultimate rabbit hole is awesome, so glad to have found it!
