Ingredients

For the Dough:

  • 1 large banana (120g peeled)
  • 200 g self raising flour 
  • 2 tbsp soy milk

For the Filling

  • 2 apple (300g pre peeled and cored)
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup (omit for under 12 months)

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 180c/350f fan.
  • Peel, core and dicing the apples. Add to a pan with the cinnamon and coconut oil, cover and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes until soft enough to mash.
  • While the apples are cooking prepare the dough by mashing a banana with the soy milk, then mix the flour in, combining to a dough ball (if it is too sticky add a little extra flour at a time, kneading before adding extra). 
  • Place the dough ball on a floured piece of baking paper or sheet (make sure its floured so it doesn’t stick), and roll out to a rectangle shape, thinner makes for a lighter roll for little ones.
  • Remove the apples from the heat once done and mash the filling ingredients together in the pan. Optional for extra sweetness here is to add 1 Tbsp of maple syrup.
  • Spread the filling across the dough, then using a pizza cutter or knife, gently score long strips sideways along the dough (the shorter side), to create around 10 strips. 
  • Gently work from each end to roll each strip into the roll/scroll shape.
  • Place each roll on a piece of baking paper or in a dish, and bake for 20-25 minutes until cooked.
  • Allow to cool (but still slightly warm) before serving.
