Apple and Cinnamon Sturdel

700g Cooking Apples

25g Sultanas

1/2 level tsp Cinnamon

Grated Zest of 1 Lemon

4 x small sheets Filo Pastry

25g Low-Fat Spread (Melted)

1 level tsp Icing Sugar (for Dusting)

 

 

Peel and core the cooking apples and slice them thinly. Mix in a bowl with the sultanas, cinnamon and lemon zest.

Spray a large baking sheet with low calorie cooking spray and place a sheet of filo pastry on top. Brush very lightly with the low fat spread and then cover with a second sheet. Repeat with the remaining two sheets, brushing with more low fat spread.

 

Spoon the apple filling onto the pastry lengthways, leaving the pastry uncovered at the edges. Now roll up from one long side into a cylinder, with the pastry joining underneath. Pinch the ends of the cylinder to seal in the filling.

 

Brush with the remaining melted low fat spread and then bake in a preheated oven at 190 drees or Fan oven at 170 degrees (Gas Mark 5) for 25-30 minutes, until the pastry is crisp and golden brown,

 

Cool slightly before dusting and cutting into thin slices to serve
