Ingredients
30g cold butter2 cups self-raising flour, sifted
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup spreadable cream cheese
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 apple, finely chopped
1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
2 tablespoons caster sugar
Handy Tips
Try other fruit combinations such as apple and sultana, banana and date or apricot and slivered almonds.
If you have a block of cream cheese, rather than spreadable, cut it into 1cm cubes and scatter it over the dough.
Method
- Rub butter into flour until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Make a well in the centre, pour in milk and mix to a soft dough. Turn out onto a lightly-floured surface and knead lightly.
- Roll out dough to a 1cm thick, 35cm x 25cm rectangle. Spread with cream cheese, sprinkle with cinnamon and then fruit and sugar. Roll up like a Swiss roll and cut into 12 slices with a sharp serrated knife, wiping the knife between each cut.
- Snuggly fit the scrolls into a 20cm x 30cm baking paper lined deep baking tray or slice tin and bake at 220°C for 15-20 minutes or until golden and cooked. Serve warm or cool with a glass of milk!
