Baked Apple Roll

• 6 0z butter or substitute
• 1½ cups self-raising flour
• Milk to mix
• 3 Apples, peeled and grated
• 2 Tablespoons sugar
• 3 Tablespoons sultanas (optional)
• 1 Tablespoon extra butter
• ½ cup extra sugar
• 1½ cups boiling water

Rub butter into flour, and then add enough milk to mix to make scone dough consistency. Roll out into an oblong shape.
Spread grated apple evenly over dough, and sprinkle over sugar and sultanas, and then roll up as for Swiss roll.
Place into a greased high-sided ovenproof dish. Put extra butter and sugar into a jug with boiling water, stir and then pour over roll. Cook in a moderate oven for 1 hour. Serve. We usually have it with cream, custard or ice cream.
VARIATION: Instead of apple filling, mix ¾ cup sugar with grated rind and juice of 1 lemon and spread over dough, roll up and pour over 1½ cups boiling water.
