- 1 teaspoon butter to coat the baking pan
Filling
- 2 medium sized apples

- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon powder

Instructions
Let us make the filling first
- Wash and peel the apples. Chop the apples into small cubes.
- Take the chopped apple cubes along with butter, brown sugar, cinnamon powder, crushed cardamom, cloves and ¼ of water in a sauce pan and cook on a simmer flame.
- Cook until the apples are soft and the liquid is almost evaporated and looks saucy.
- Take it off the stove and let it cool completely until use.
- I made the filling the previous night and refrigerated it overnight. That way the flavors settle so well and the taste heavenly.
To make the apple pie roll ups
- Take the bread slices and cut the corners. Mix custard powder with ¼ cup of water and add melted butter to it.
- In a bowl mix sugar and cinnamon powder and keep it aside.
- Roll the bread thin, place a teaspoon of apple pie filling and roll it up like a log. Dab a little water to the corners and seal the edges to close.
- Dip the roll in the custard -butter mix and roll it in cinnamon sugar and place in a buttered baking tray. Repeat the same with rest of the rolls.
- Preheat the oven to 180c. Drizzle some granulated sugar on top of the rolls and bake them for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven, let it cool for 10 minutes.
- Serve them warm, drizzled with some leftover syrup from the apple pie filling and with some chocolate sauce.
Storing & Serving Suggestions
- Any leftover rolls can be refrigerated in an air-tight box for 3-4 days. If serving from the refrigerator, reheat ihe microwave for 20 seconds and serve it warm.
- If storing for more days, you can freeze the rolls after baking and cooling it completely. While serving for the freezer, bake the rolls in a hot oven for 8-10 minutes or air fry the rolls for 6 minutes and serve warm.
- You can also freeze the rolls before baking and bake them fresh whenever you need a quick dessert.
