BREADMAKERR WINTER PESTO PINWHEELS APPLE DAPPY

This recipe has worked so far in three different breadmakers so I think I can safely say it's a universal type.

300ml warm water 3 tbsp olive oil 2 cups white flour 1 cup wholemeal flour 1.5 tsp salt 1 tbsp sugar 3 tbsp milk powder 3 tsp breadmaker yeast

Pop the ingredients into the e breadmaker in this order. r. Set to DOUGH and let t the machine do the e work for you while hile you get the pesto o organised.

PESTO

2-3 good big handfulsndfuls of greens 3/4 cup good extra virgin olive oil ½ tsp salt ½ cup roasted nuts and/orr seeds n small chunk of parmesan or feta cheese (optional)

Juice of 1 lemon n 2-3 large cloves of garlic, depending on taste

The greens can include sheep's sorrel, chickweed, baby dandelion, puha, cleaver stems, ms, and watercress leaves, mustardd greens from the garden, plus rocket, cilantro, parsley or mint nt if you have it growing. Put all ingredients below into a food processor and thoroughly blend to make about a cup which is roughly how much you will need for the pinwheels.

Once the pesto is ready and the breadmaker has finished its dough cycle, roll the dough out into a large rectangle on a floured surface, spread with pesto and as much grated cheese as you like, roll into a sausage and cut into 2cm slices. Place on a well-greased oven tray and leave to rise for 20-40 minutes. Bake at 180°C until golden brown, around 25 minutes.

FILLING

800g tart apples Squeeze of lemon juice 4 tbsp sugar 2 tbsp butter water Peel, core and chop the apples into small pieces and cook until just soft with a squeeze of lemon juice. I sometimes add a wee bit of water as well so they don't burn. Cook in advance and leave to cool down until warm.

PASTRY

n 400g self-raising flour OR n 200g wholemeal flour + 200g white flour + 2.5 tsp baking powder

generous pinch of salt n 1 tsp cinnamon n 125g butter n 4 tbsp sugar n 250ml milk In a food processor, combine flour/s, salt, butter, cinnamon and sugar and pulse until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. You can add more cinnamon if you like it, or try mixed spice, anise, cardamom and ginger. If you don't have a food processor, just rub the butter in with your fingers. Add milk until you have a soft sticky dough. Transfer dough to a floured surface and roll out into a rectangle about 20x60cm. Spread apple mixture over dough and roll up. Cut into 12-14 rolls and place on greaseproof paper on a tray in a ring with 1-2cm in between as the dappys swell up as they cook and form a sort-of cake. You can sprinkle with a bit more sugar and/or cinnamon if you like. Cook for 20-25 minutes at 200°C. Serve warm with cream/ice cream.
